Schools and settings are encouraged to take a whole school approach in order to:

Develop an ethos and environment that supports learning and promotes the mental health and wellbeing of all.
Engage, consult and encourage participation of all within the school community.
Create an extremely effective school improvement mechanism which brings about and embeds cultural and behavioural change in schools/ settings.
