Well School

Ivanhoe is one of a number of schools across the country that has joined the Well School movement in conjunction with the Youth Sports Trust and Bupa Foundation. This growing community of like-minded people and schools believe that wellbeing should be at the heart of education.

Wellbeing should permeate all aspects of education and be the foundation of the culture that staff and pupils experience. Schools involved pledge to demonstrate a commitment to staff and student wellbeing through our teaching and learning, culture and enrichment. Being a well-school involves putting wellbeing at the heart of Ivanhoe.

There are three aspects that make up the Well School pledge, which are;

1. Well Led – Staff well-being is championed and supported by all at Ivanhoe, which allows staff to be at their best for the students and for themselves.
2. Well Equipped – In order for our young people to be prepared for life after Ivanhoe, they must develop a broad interest and understanding of the world around them. We ensure this through various methods, including; our knowledge rich curriculum, the Ivanhoe Way and our extra-curricular opportunities.
3. Well Prepared – Students will develop life skills which they require for their lives after Ivanhoe and ready for future employment. Students will become well equipped through the knowledge rich curriculum and wide enrichment programme.
