Strengthening Minds helps us prioritise pupil engagement and wellbeing across our schools.

Last Thursday, we brought colleagues from across our primary schools together for Strengthening Minds facilitator training.

It was a great opportunity for us to come together, share ideas and learn from one another, showing the real strength of working as a family of schools to support our children and young people.

Strengthening Minds focuses on fun, interactive sessions that get young people engaged while supporting their mental wellbeing. The training gave our new facilitators plenty of practical ideas and confidence to bring these fast‑paced sessions into everyday school life.

By the end of the day, colleagues left feeling inspired, motivated and ready to make a real difference for pupils across our schools.

A big well done to everyone involved. Moments like this show the power of teamwork and our shared commitment to helping people grow across SEEAT.
