Counselling and Wellbeing

Our comprehensive counselling and guidance programme supports the belief that for our students to flourish, achieve academically and successfully navigate their school-aged years it is vital that they are equipped with the skills, knowledge, understanding to ensure they are emotionally healthy.

Counselling is available to both primary and secondary students. We offer a range of modalities including play therapy for our younger students.

We have two dedicated social and emotional counsellors at S107. Each has their own area and office with an open-door policy where students can drop in to ask questions, access resources, or just find a listening ear.

Room 3-110

In order to nurture passion in our students, we understand that both students and parents need support when confronting the daunting task of university applications and selection.

Our dedicated University Counsellor, Deepa Patel hosts regular events, teaches classes for students, coordinates university representative visits, sources helpful software, acts as a sounding board, and so many other activities throughout the year to help students and parents.

At S107, we aim to produce learners who can contribute to the world with confidence and who are happy and successful. We want our students to be ready for whatever the next stage of life’s journey has in store for them, equipped with both the knowledge and skills to survive and thrive.

We have a committed Wellbeing team who bring with them special expertise within their role and contribute to working together to support the Wellbeing of the school community.

Student Wellbeing Ambassadors 

A group of Year 11 and Year 12 students received mental health support training from an external provider.
