Mental Health & Well-being
At FIC, we prioritise the mental well-being of our students just as much as their academic performance. By promoting mental health awareness, we create a supportive environment where students feel comfortable discussing their emotional well-being and seeking help when they need it.
Promoting mental well-being is crucial for students to thrive academically, emotionally and socially. Our aim is to help every student develop the emotional resilience they need to succeed, both in their studies and in life beyond school.
How We Support Our Students
|
A Supportive Community We build a community founded on open communication, where students always have someone to turn to. This includes regular check-ins with house parents and tutors, peer support in the boarding house and classrooms, and access to trained counsellors and mental health resources whenever they are needed. |
|
Skills for Resilience We equip students with practical strategies to manage stress and stay well. Well-being workshops, together with teaching in time management and organisation, help students build the coping strategies and self-awareness that support a healthy, balanced approach to school life. |
|
A Healthy Balance A healthy body supports a healthy mind. To combat the effects of stress, we encourage physical activity, involvement in hobbies and extra-curricular activities, a balanced diet, and plenty of sleep and relaxation – the everyday habits that keep students feeling their best. |
