Nurture uk Accreditation
At St Alphege and Sunbeams, pastoral care underpins personal development and makes our children feel that they belong, that they have good self-esteem and that they are able to flourish because they feel valued and cared for.
There has never been a more important time in education for nurture. Children, parents, staff and our communities face an ever changing and at times unpredictable world.
We believe having a whole school nurturing approach, where social, emotional and mental health is supported to form the foundations on which an academic education can be built, is fundamental for our children’s futures. Nurture as a practice, means relating to and coaching children and young people, to help them form positive relationships, build resilience and improve their social, emotional and mental health and wellbeing
Our school recently achieved official Nurture UK accreditation, the first school in our District to do so. This accreditation celebrates our long-held commitment to placing Nurture, Wellbeing and Inclusion at the heart of all we do.
