Mental Health
At Barry Primary and Nursery School, we recognise that good mental health is as important as good physical health. Our children are taught to recognise and manage emotions and how to build relationships through a rich and varied curriculum.
For any parent or carer that is worried about their child’s mental health and wellbeing, there are a number of people and places to reach out to:
- Your child’s teacher or Phase Leader
- Mrs Hill
- Your GP
- School nursing team 0800 1707055 Option 4
