Mrs Brockhurst was contacted by MP, Leigh Ingham. She asked all about what we do at Tillington to support and promote healthy relationships and positive mental health 🧠🗣️♥️ She then discussed this and gave our school as an example in Parliament! 👏🏻 ” At Tillington Manor primary school, healthy relationships are not an occasional lesson: they are woven through the culture of the school. Through a structured personal, social, health and economic education curriculum, children learn about friendship, family, communication, conflict resolution and how to recognise healthy and unhealthy behaviours. The lessons are all age appropriate, and they build year on year. They are delivered through safe discussion, role play and reflection in a safe environment. But what really stands out to me is the whole-school approach. The school has dedicated spaces, such as the nook and the hive, where emotional support is provided for children and families, and the staff are trained in emotional literacy and wellbeing. As a result, the pupils are more confident in identifying healthy relationships and more likely to seek help from trusted adults. The school has found that, as a result of the programmes, repeated conflict has reduced over time. That is what prevention can look like in practice.” 👉You can hear Leigh speak here: https://www.parliamentlive.tv/Event/Index/81fa1ecf-8ad6-47d4-a46e-b3de48597ecf We are very proud to have been recognised in Parliament 😊⭐️
