My Happy Mind

My Happy Mind – Our Bronze Award!

We are proud to announce that we are a My Happy Mind Bronze Accredited school!

This means that as a school we consider the mental health and wellbeing of our children as one of our top priorities. We have created a whole school culture that helps build our children’s resilience, confidence and self esteem as well as teaching them how to self regulate in those stressful times.

This Accreditation badge has been awarded thanks to all the effort our staff, children, governors and parents have put in to bring the lessons of My Happy Mind to life all around our school!

My Happy Mind at Coleshill

We are proud to be a MyHappyMind school. My Happy Mind is an NHS-backed, award-winning mental health and wellbeing programme that helps children develop lifelong habits to support their happiness, resilience and confidence. It is rooted in neuroscience and positive psychology, given children practical, science-based tools they can use in school and beyond.

The programme teaches pupils how their brains work, how to manage emotions, and how to build strong relationships. It supports children to develop positive self‑esteem, practise gratitude, recognise their strengths, and set meaningful goals—key skills that help them thrive both academically and personally.

As a whole‑school curriculum, myHappymind is delivered weekly through interactive lessons featuring stories, videos, characters, and reflective activities. The modules run from Early Years to Year 6, ensuring a consistent, nurturing approach that benefits every child. Many schools, including ours, also see calmer classrooms, improved emotional regulation, and a stronger sense of community through the programme.

What the Children Learn

myHappymind is organised into five core modules:

Meet Your Brain

Children learn how their brain works and how to look after it—developing emotional awareness, self‑management, and a growth mindset.

Celebrate

Pupils discover their unique character strengths and learn to value what makes them special—boosting confidence and self‑esteem.

Appreciate

This module teaches the importance of gratitude and supports pupils to make thankfulness a daily habit, improving wellbeing and resilience.

Relate

Children explore friendships and relationships, learning how to build positive connections, navigate conflict, and show empathy.

Engage

This module teaches children about setting goals and dreams for the future, inspiring hope and happiness for the future.
