Marine Academy Primary is proud to announce it has been awarded the Bronze Mental Health Charter Mark, recognising the school’s outstanding commitment to fostering the mental health and wellbeing of students and staff alike.

This award celebrates schools that prioritise children’s emotional wellbeing, understanding that good mental health is key to building resilience and navigating life’s challenges.

Marine Academy Primary wants to give a big shoutout to their dedicated Pupil Wellbeing Ambassadors, whose tireless efforts have played a crucial role in promoting emotional wellbeing throughout the school. Their commitment has made a real difference, and staff are excited to see them continue their impactful work into the next academic year, taking their initiatives to even greater heights.

All schools in the Ted Wragg Trust, which Marine Academy Primary is a part of, are undertaking the Mental Health Charter Mark and St Luke's Church of England School, Isca Academy and Exwick Heights Primary School have all also received the Bronze Award already.
