Mental Health and Well-being

We all have mental health and well-being, just as we all have physical health, and at Greenhead College your mental health and well-being is our top priority because we know that having this support helps you to be exceptional in all aspects of your life.

Our Mental Health and Well-being Framework demonstrates Greenhead College’s commitment to well-being and helps creates a positive culture of mental and physical health, that benefits the whole College community. It brings together all strands of high quality support under one umbrella.

In 2024 we were awarded Gold standard for its outstanding mental health and well-being provision by the Carnegie Centre for Excellence for Mental Health in Schools and Colleges.

Mental and Physical (M+P) Weeks

Bringing the College community together

M+P Weeks offer an opportunity for both staff and students to access activities, information sessions and resources to support mental health and well-being both in and out of the classroom. They highlight the importance placed on mental health and well-being by the College, offer an opportunity to explore the relationship between well-being and academic outcomes, and open a channel of communication between staff and students to allow a process of reflection.
