Wellbeing

At Latimer Arts College, we take student and staff wellbeing very seriously. We are embarking on a journey to develop our support for student wellbeing. Below are some useful links, plus a QR code where students can report directly any concerns to us. We have access to Souster Youth and the local MHST team for individual referrals. We can also refer to the school NHS nurse for specific queries. We are in the process of further training staff in mental health first aid. In the meantime, if you have a query about student wellbeing, please contact Mr S King (sking@latimer.org.uk)
