Wellbeing
Welcome to the wellbeing page for Ashcombe students. It is important to know that everyone has mental health and wellbeing, It is our feelings, our thinking, our emotions and our mood, and it is as important as our physical health. These resources are here to help you when you’re feeling a little overwhelmed or simply to help you support your general wellbeing.
It is very important that you also talk to someone in school if you are struggling in any way, please contact your HOY, HOS or tutor for help.

Be Me Project has been working in The Ashcombe School for the past 8 years and exists to give young people a better start in life. It is based on a theory of change: the outputs from our courses are improved self-esteem and confidence, and a greater positivity in young people. This leads to recognition and understanding of self-worth, a better educational experience and better family/peer relationships, and ultimately the impact is a better start in life.
