Staff are invited to nominate students who have demonstrated a Growth Mindset in the past few weeks. This might have been in lessons, in clubs, in tutor time or simply around school. Please note we already award bi-annual subject badges and merits for good academic work, effort and improvement. These Growth Mindset nominations recognise those who show resilience (academic or otherwise); who aren’t afraid to get things wrong and learn from it; those who have a go, take themselves out of their comfort zone or show that even if a task is tough they will persevere.
Nationally there has been a 77% rise in the number of children needing specialist treatment for severe mental health crisis, the BBC reported last week [Children's mental health: Huge rise in severe cases, BBC analysis reveals - BBC News]. The government plans 400 mental health teams to support schools by 2023, and we feel ahead of the game with our tiers of support for our learners and young people at KSHS, including our listening service, referrals into outside services and our own CASY counselling service.
This year we are inviting a small group of students from Years 9 and 10 to shadow the judging process of the prestigious Carnegie and Kate Greenaway Children’s Book Award.
