    Year 1 - Emotional Explorers (6 week workshop - 45 minutes each session)
    Year 3 - Social Skills for Emotional Wellbeing (6 week workshop - 1hr. each session)
    Please note our class teachers will be in the sessions too.
    If for some reason you decide you do not want them taking part, please read on. In addition, attached is a Privacy Notice from MIND, letting you know how pupil data may be used.

    Dear Parent/Carer,
    Introducing Children & Young Peoples Mental Health Support Team (MHST)
    The new Mental Health Support Team, run by local charity Mind in West Essex, has been commissioned to work across 25 schools within Epping Forest to support children and young people with their mental health and wellbeing. We aim to help all children to succeed, achieve their full potential, and learn strategies to enable them to live healthy lives.

    Your child’s school will be supported by an Educational Mental Health Practitioner (EMHP), working in collaboration with school staff. The wider MHST is comprised of more experienced practitioners, family link workers and therapists who provide supervision and support to the EMHPs, and work with differing educational establishments to tailor the services offered.

    EMHPs will provide a range of services including the following:
    • Group work and workshops for Primary pupils around emotions and confidence
    • Group work and workshops for Secondary pupils around relationships and self-esteem
    • One-to-one sessions for Primary parents around helping with the child’s anxiety or challenging behaviour
    • One-to-one sessions for Secondary pupils around helping with their mild to moderate anxiety or low mood
    • Signposting children and young people with higher needs to access the right support
    • Training and consultation to school staff
    • Working with school staff on a whole-school approach to mental health and wellbeing

    Services offered will differ between schools depending on the age range and the differing needs of individual schools. All referrals to the service will be provided by the school, led by the designated mental health lead.

    The MHST will be working with your child’s school this term. If you DO NOT wish for your child to be involved in any provision offered by the MHST please contact the school.

    If your child was offered a one-to-one intervention from the MHST there would be an additional consent form for you to sign.

    Please find attached our privacy notice which details how data will be stored. If you have any further questions, please contact our team administrator Genna Roberts on mhsteppingforest@mindinwestessex.org.uk

    Yours sincerely,

    Genna Roberts
    Children & Young People’s
    Mental Health Support Team Administrator

    Summer Reading Challenge

    Good afternoon parents/carers,

    Attached is the information about this year’s Essex Library Summer Reading Challenge.
    We are encouraging as many pupils as possible to participate. We know how important it is to keep children reading and to build a love of reading, and unfortunately, with 6 weeks without reading we do see children returning in the Autumn term having regressed from where they left us in July. Please sign up your child and take them along to any Essex library throughout the summer to complete the 6-book challenge. All children that complete it will be presented with a certificate and medal that we will celebrate in assembly in the Autumn term.

    Happy reading everyone!

    Kind Regards,
    Miss Nicholson
