At R.E.A.L., we’re committed to supporting and promoting positive mental health and the wellbeing of our learners.
If any learners are struggling with their mental health, please know they can speak to us. We do offer a counselling service at R.E.A.L. giving children and young people high quality, professional support for a wide range of emotional needs.
Significant research has shown that counselling can help young people’s confidence, resilience, sense of self-worth, their relationships, school attendance and academic achievement. With its holistic approach, R.E.A.L. Counselling Service welcomes the young people with non-judgemental, empathic support for anything the learner is finding difficult.
Any R.E.A.L. learner in Key Stage 3 or above (Year 7 upwards), or their parents/ carers, can now make a confidential self-referral directly to the counselling service using the following link:

Alternatively, the learner can speak to a Tutor or their Learning Manager and ask for a referral to be made on their behalf.
For all enquiries about the counselling service, please email counselling@real-education.org
