It's nearly the summer holidays and the end of another school year. For pupils in both secondary and primary schools, this is a joyous time. Weeks of endless daytime lay ahead to be spend in the sunshine either at home or abroad. For staff, a well-deserved holiday awaits to allow you to recharge your batteries, and indulge in much needed personal time.
But as the school gates close across the country, some staff and pupils may be at a loss. The structure that holds their days together will snap, and they'll be left with little to do. Some may have issues at home, for which school is a welcome reprieve. Others may attend school away from where they live, and as such will be bereft of dearly held friendships.
The Anna Freud organisation, aimed at delivering mentally healthy schools has been looking at this issue and has produced their self-care summer toolkit. If interested in looking at their resources, please follow the links below:
