Mental Health and Wellbeing

Mental Health and Wellbeing – Year 9 Leadership Programme

At Temple Learning Academy, we are committed to nurturing a culture of positive mental health and wellbeing. As part of our Year 9 leadership programme, all students complete the One Goal Mental Health Champion training—an engaging and empowering initiative designed to transform student wellbeing. Delivered by the UK’s leading provider of mental health training in schools, this programme helps students develop resilience, emotional awareness, and healthy coping strategies. Through interactive workshops and practical resources, students learn how to support their own mental health and become confident ambassadors for wellbeing within our school community. This training ensures that every Year 9 student is equipped to make a positive impact, fostering a culture of empathy, openness, and support.

Year 10 Student Wellbeing Ambassadors

Building on the One Goal Mental Health Champion training completed by all Year 9 students, a group of Year 10 students have been appointed as Student Wellbeing Ambassadors. These students applied for the role and were carefully selected by our Mental Health and Wellbeing Lead based on their passion, empathy, and leadership potential. As ambassadors, they receive further training to enhance their skills and are actively involved in promoting wellbeing across the academy. Throughout the academic year, they contribute to whole-school initiatives such as World Mental Health Day and work on a range of events designed to raise awareness, reduce stigma and encourage open conversations around mental health. Their work plays a vital role in embedding a supportive and inclusive environment for all students.
