As the Year 13 exams are approaching, the school mental health team would like to share with you some helpful tips and advice around managing student stress and wellbeing during this period.
Please find linked here, a copy of a presentation delivered by Miss Newton, aimed at highlighting coping skills that may be useful throughout the exam period. This presentation will be shared via Class Charts for Year 13 and we hope can be a valuable tool of reference for parents also.
