The Sherwood School has been included in an exciting Trailblazer project linked with the NHS to support children and families with emotional wellbeing. The aims of the project are prevention and promotion of early help. Our team of 16 schools are supported by our partners from South West London Health and Care Partnership [NHS]. Working alongside us is Clinical Psychologist Sara Rosenthal and four trainee Education Wellbeing Practitioners; Caroline, Catalina, Aaliyah and Michaela who have already started working across our school. In December we will be joined by an experienced nurse to add further support. Our aim is to ensure our pupils enjoy good emotional well being through accessing the advice and help they need.
