Ormiston Park Academy have mental health champions
ORMISTON Park Academy are working closely with the Thurrock School Well-being Service to promote positive mental health across the Academy. On Tuesday 20th April The Thurrock School Well-being Service delivered a one-day workshop and training for students across all Year Groups.
The service usually delivers this training to 6-10 young people over a 6-week period, but Ormiston Park Academy wanted more and committed to supporting our young people in all aspects of their school life and want to ensure that they have the tools to tackle this increasingly important issue. Following the mental health training Ormiston Park now have two mental health champions for every class in every year group. These trained young people will act as student representatives for all things mental health related and support their peers when needed.
