Wellbeing

At Sandwich Technology School we believe positive wellbeing contributes to improved physical, mental and social health, and supports good outcomes for pupils.

Our Universal Offer sees pupils accessing a comprehensive pastoral programme which includes Personal, Social and Health Education (PSHE), Relationships and Sex Education (RSE), and our exciting enrichment programme.

Our specialised and bespoke offer provides addition support either using school based resources and interventions, or through multi-agency working with colleagues from a wide ranging multi-disciplinary team,

Our approach to wellbeing is evidence-based and looks to be creative, innovative and leads to pupils having incisive and effective support.
