Mental wellbeing

Receiving GCSE and A Level results can be a stressful experience in a normal year, let alone after a period of time which has thrown down so many additional challenges. If you are feeling anxious or struggling with your mental health, you must speak to somebody. This might be a parent, carer or someone else you trust. A number of staff will be available on results days.

There are also a number of organisations who can provide information, resources and live support which is free, safe and anonymous, including...

• Kooth (CLICK HERE)
• Mind (CLICK HERE)
• Young Minds (CLICK HERE)
