St Luke's Church of England School is proud to share that they have been awarded the Bronze Mental Health Charter Mark, a recognition of their strong and ongoing commitment to supporting the mental health and wellbeing of both students and staff. 

This award celebrates schools that place emotional wellbeing at the heart of their community, recognising that positive mental health is key to building resilience, confidence, and the ability to navigate life’s challenges. 

At St Luke’s, which is part of the Ted Wragg Trust, student Mental Health Ambassadors have played a vital role in strengthening student support services. Always approachable and compassionate, they’ve created a safe, supportive space for their peers, offering a listening ear and meaningful guidance. Their commitment to student wellbeing was recognised in October 2024 when they received the Student Community Leadership Award at the Ted Wragg Awards, celebrating their lasting impact and leadership. 

The school offer a range of support, from Poppy the therapy dog to wellbeing drop-ins and access to the school counsellor, to support students with their mental health. In their report from last year Ofsted inspectors noted this commitment, commenting that pupils learn to look after their physical and mental health, such as mindfulness time in tutor periods.  

All schools in the Ted Wragg Trust are undertaking the Mental Health Charter Mark and Isca Academy has also received the Bronze Award already.  

Harrison Littler, Headteacher at St Luke's  Church of England School said: 

"We are incredibly proud to receive the Bronze Mental Health Charter Mark. It reflects the deep commitment of our staff, students, and especially our Mental Health Ambassadors, who work tirelessly to make St Luke’s a safe, supportive, and nurturing place for everyone." 

Moira Marder, CEO of the Ted Wragg Multi-Academy Trust said: 

"At the Ted Wragg Trust, we believe that supporting emotional wellbeing is fundamental to helping young people thrive. St Luke’s has shown outstanding leadership in this area, and this award is a testament to their inclusive, compassionate culture and the powerful role student voice plays in shaping it."
