More about the Leaders in Wellbeing Award
We believe the Wellbeing Award can be achieved by all organisations that are committed to embedding mental health and wellbeing across their whole organisation. The award provides a rigorous, independent review of your wellbeing arrangements, helping you evidence excellence and demonstrate sustained best practice WBA for Schools and Colleges.

The review process is clear, thorough and supportive, with findings set out against each of the eight wellbeing standards. Your report will highlight strengths and provide clear, practical recommendations where further development is needed.
