Whole School Emotional Health Programme
Build an emotional health programme that works for you
We know that all schools are different. Our whole school programme is designed to be tailored to support your community’s priorities and needs.
2 Day Foundation Training
You can start by sending a couple or a few school staff to the Togetherness 2 Day Foundation Training. £189 each, so very affordable. This will give a flavour of what we’re about and whether it would suit your school.
We might have something big we can offer you for free!
This is for your parents.
If you are in a Togetherness Multi-User Licence area funded by your Local Authority, your parents have access to 17 online pathways, all supporting the emotional health of families and children.
These pathways are popular with parents and have a 90% approval rating.
Contact us to find out if you are in a free area.
(If your Local Authority is in the 37% of the UK not covered by a Licence, you can buy access just for your school community.)
Togetherness in schools
So, you’ve sent a few people on our 2 Day Foundation training. You like what you hear and think it would suit your school, or you’ve heard about us from another school?
You can put together a programme from the different elements to match what your school requires. We can also help you with that, from our experience with other schools.
