After the launch of the Bedfordshire Healthy Schools website, we have developed a website primarily focused on Emotional Health and Wellbeing for schools.
Emotional Health and Wellbeing is one of the 4 core themes of what makes a healthy school and the purpose of the site is to provide information, advice and resources for staff on all aspects relating to the emotional health and wellbeing of young people.
A focus on well being is critical to the social development and educational achievement of children and young people. Research shows it has a significant impact on health and social outcomes in adult life.
The new website for Bedfordshire PCT, includes a discussion board, details of local services that are there to help and guidance on a range of issues including bullying and unusual eating patterns within children.
