Emotional Health and Wellbeing

Lots of students get support from their school when they’re going through a tough time. Young people can speak to anyone working in school about anything that’s bothering them, whether it’s school related or something different.

Feeling distressed or unhappy from time to time is normal, however, if these feelings are persistent or are causing a lot of worry for a person you are concerned about, then you may need to seek professional help.

In Barnsley, young people and schools have a range of services including peer support, family support and counselling that can help.
