  • Empowering Student Voices: The Role of Peer Listeners in our School

    Published 18/05/23

    This Mental Health Awareness Week, we are delighted to introduce our peer listening scheme, which seeks to create a safe and nurturing environment for pupils. Launched during Mental Health Awareness Week, this scheme embodies the college's commitment to ensuring that every pupil has someone they can turn to, promoting emotional well-being and fostering a strong sense of belonging.

    At Worksop College, the belief that mental health and emotional wellbeing are cornerstones of academic and personal growth is deeply ingrained. Recognising that students may sometimes face challenges and require a listening ear, the peer listening scheme was conceived to ensure that support is readily accessible to all. Mental Health Awareness Week provides a poignant backdrop for this scheme, as it spotlights the importance of mental health and encourages open conversations surrounding it.

    We spoke to Mr Cawley, Wellbeing Lead and mastermind behind the peer listening programme.
