Speak Up

Speak Up encourages all students if worried and feel unsafe to know who to go to within school.
Mental Health Matters

Q3 Academy Tipton recognised that looking after our student’s mental wellbeing is just as important as making sure they reach their full potential in their education. We have a number of interventions that run within the Academy that can help our children when they need that extra little support for various different reasons. We also have a range of different external agencies that we are able to refer too should the need arise.
In this area you will be able to read about the interventions that run-in school but also find links for useful websites and resources linked in the sections.
