Wellbeing

We are proud to put wellbeing at the centre of what we do at DSTC. We have a culture of communication and looking after each other, as well as an understanding that it is always "OK not to be OK". We have a member of pastoral, non-teaching staff attached to each Year team in school. They support our students when they are upset, worried or have an issue to discuss.
Please use the links below to access a range of mental health support and activities. We update these periodically, so please check back now and then to see any new resources that we have.
