Students
This section of our website is for students, but we very much welcome parents and governors looking at it and finding some of the fantastic materials and resources on offer.
In this section, you will find advice and guidance to support learning, as well as links to other websites that we feel, are a high quality and complement what we do in school.
Student Support
For new secondary school students please use the link to access information about the Children’s Public Health 0-19 Nursing Service available to support you.
Did you know Nottingham CityCare has a virtual way for young people to get advice and support about health related issues?
TextHealth is a new service from Nottingham CityCare, available Monday to Friday from 8:30am to 5pm (automatic bouncebacks respond to incoming messages out of hours). As our lives have changed over the last few months due to the coronavirus, it’s more important than ever for young people to have easy access to support with their health.
The text number for this is [07480 635024]. Or visit www.chathealth.nhs.uk Text a nurse. Text Health.
