Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural Aspects at KSCS

Well Being Ambassadors

Following a request from a student in Year 11, a group of five students formed a group of ambassadors to promote mental health and wellbeing at KSCS. Over the past year, they have been instrumental in putting in place events and strategies to benefit the whole school. These have included positive framed messages in all toilets; production of a laminated signposting card for students to access help both in and out of school; assemblies; a stall every break and lunch during mental health awareness week selling energy balls and flapjacks, helpful information, a noticeboard for people to write a tip for “When I’m Stressed I…..” and a competition to design a wellbeing logo for KSCS. They also arranged for a yoga teacher to give a free lesson after school to help promote relaxation techniques for Year 11 prior to exams and staff. The lead ambassador secured two lots of funding for our new budget.

New students in Years 7 and 8 came on board as they were inspired by what the others were doing.

Meetings with Mr. Erwin and the team at least once each half term.
