At Newfield, we are committed to improving mental health outcomes for our pupils. We are currently working with a team of Educational Mental Health Practitioners (EMHP), assigned to support children and young people in schools, at the earliest signs of mental health difficulties.
Our joint aim is to improve the mental health outcomes for children and young people by delivering evidence-based low intensity interventions, as part of a health promotion strategy in educational settings. Early intervention has been proven to reduce the likelihood of mental health difficulties emerging later in life.
