The key tour provision is one of our core School Values, Willow Wellbeing! Whilst academic work is important, the main drive at Eden Park is to ensure childrenare safe and content as then they are in the best position to learn.  

Willow links to a “wellbeing framework” that we use to actively teach the children about emotional wellbeing through curriculum delivery. We use the framework to teach the children to be like Willow!
