Well-being

The following links are designed to provide you with practical advice on areas of concern that sometimes cause parents anxiety or stress when supporting their teenager.

The four areas are, Eating disorders, Self-Harm, Anxiety, Online Safety.

Our intention is to provide an area of the website where parents might find information, advice and guidance that supports them in understanding areas of teenage life that might feel alien to them.

Some of the links are to websites that provide their own advice and guidance; other links are to articles that may be of interest that are linked to the subject matter.

In some areas we share some of our own teaching resources which provides an insight into how Priory is adapting its curriculum to support students.

The range of links is by no means exhaustive. We would welcome feedback and recommendations of additional information that parents have, themselves found useful and supportive.

Should you wish to provide any feedback please go to priory@priorysouthsea.org and title your email Health Web page.
