Pupil Wellbeing
At Aylesham, we promote the positive mental health and wellbeing of every member of our school community. We recognise that positive mental health is essential for effective learning and attainment.
Below you find some links and resources that we hope you find useful in supporting the emotional wellbeing of your child. If you are concerned about your child's mental wellbeing, please contact the class teacher or Mrs Holtby-Smith, our Deputy Headteacher and Senior Mental Health Lead.
