Walworth Primary School

'Listen, Learn and be Happy Together'

Wellbeing Award for Schools

Our Wellbeing Vision - Walworth Primary School is committed to maintaining the Wellbeing Award for Schools and continuously developing a culture where children, families and staff can thrive.

At Walworth Primary School, promoting positive mental health and wellbeing is central to everything we do. As part of our ongoing commitment to supporting pupils, families and staff, we work towards the Wellbeing Award for Schools.

Developed in partnership with the National Children's Bureau, the Wellbeing Award for Schools recognises schools that demonstrate a strong commitment to emotional wellbeing and mental health across the whole school community.

The award provides a framework that helps schools embed wellbeing into all aspects of school life, including leadership, teaching and learning, staff wellbeing, pupil voice, family engagement and partnerships with external services.

At Walworth, wellbeing is not an additional initiative. It is an integral part of our ethos and underpins our vision of helping every child to feel safe, valued, supported and ready to learn.

We are proud of the work we do to promote wellbeing throughout our school community and are currently preparing for our next Wellbeing Award for Schools reaccreditation, which is due in Summer 2026.

This page celebrates our wellbeing journey and showcases the ways in which we continue to support children, families and staff to Listen, Learn and Be Happy Together.
