We understand that maintaining the best physical and mental wellbeing is important in your journey to success and will help you to get the most out of your studies.
We are constantly developing resources, training staff and staging activities to give you the very best opportunity to stay well.
Our caring and approachable fully-trained, on-site counsellor allows Students the ideal opportunity to express your thoughts and emotions in a safe space and receive support in finding the tools to help you cope.
Pastoral mentors are based within the Safeguarding, Health and Wellbeing team. They support students with many concerns from friendships, to low level mental health concerns and much more.
Many members of staff across College have undergone specialist training to become Mental Health First Aiders.
We recognise that a healthy breakfast can set you up for a successful day of study and offer this from 7.45am, to help you start your day.
Burnley College is continuing to offer support and guidance to all learners by working in partnership with local services to form a multi-disciplinary team of support to learners and apprentices, who are considered to be vulnerable through the Encompass early intervention safeguarding partnership.
