We are dedicated to blending academic excellence with a richness of opportunity beyond the classroom.

Today is World Mental Health Day. During form time, we’ll be taking some time to talk about why mental health matters and how we can look after ourselves and support each other. This year’s theme set by the World Federation for Mental Health is access to services. The theme highlights the importance of people being able to protect their mental health whatever they're going through, because everyone deserves good mental health. Therefore, Leeds NHS have created a world mental health day poster with helpful services around Leeds.
