Taking care of your wellbeing

As a college we recognise that growing up can sometimes be difficult. Sometimes despite the best efforts of your teachers or parents, there are students who cannot find their place in their peer group, who dread coming to school or fail to fulfil their potential.

If you are feeling anxious, or worried about anything, please speak to your Form Tutor or Year Leads who will be able to advise you and provide further support.

You can also find lots of useful websites and resources for self-care and mental wellbeing below.

Student Support Services

In order to support our young people through difficult times, we have Student Support Services to which staff, students and parents can refer.

The aim of the Student Support Services is to provide high quality care, guidance & support for students so that they can grow into healthy, happy & hopeful young people with the capacity to learn, the ability to respect others and the creativity to make the most of the opportunities offered to them by Bacon’s.
