Support & Wellbeing
During their time at Martin High School students will be faced with lots of challenges – both academic and personalWe have created this area to direct them to a wide range of support available to them and their family. Students should take some time to explore the different links. Students should remember that they can always ask for help, advice and guidance through their form tutor. If they can think of any new links that we should have that would help other students then they should email the student support centre with their suggestions.
