Be Well Programme

The Be Well programme is a unique resource commissioned by The Education Alliance, to increase mental health provision for children, staff and parents across schools in our Trust. The programme is made possible through close partnerships with several organisations and is made possible with the support of Pagabo.

The Be Well Programme consists of three elements:

Mind – The Whole School Approach for all children, parents and staff

SMASH (Social Mediation and Self Help) for secondary aged children

ELSA (Emotional Literacy) support for primary aged children
