Mental Health & Wellbeing
We are Here to Support You
At Shooters Hill Sixth Form College, we understand that mental health and wellbeing are important concerns. That’s why we have a dedicated team committed to promoting and supporting mental health across the college community.
Our goal is to provide a supportive and inclusive environment by taking a proactive approach. We offer workshops and courses for students dealing with anxiety and stress, alongside events to raise awareness about mental health.
To ensure continuity of care and effective support, we work closely with external organisations such as Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) and local outreach services.
How to Access Support
Pastoral Wellbeing Tutors
Our Pastoral Wellbeing Tutors are here to guide you through personal development and life’s challenges. They provide resources, activities, and coaching to help you navigate an ever-changing world.
Student Services
Need support outside of the classroom? Student Services is always available to help. You can visit their office on the 3rd floor of the main building, where someone will be ready to assist you with any concerns.
Mental Health First Aiders
If you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or simply need a space to take a break, our Mental Health First Aiders are here to support you. Reach out to them whenever you need guidance or a safe place to talk.
Counselling
We have a visiting trained counsellor who provides confidential, one-on-one support for both work-related and personal concerns. If you prefer external support, they can also provide information on specialist organisations that can help.
We encourage students to disclose any concerns before joining or at any time during their studies so we can offer the best support possible.
