The brief

Today you are going to imagine you are a teacher at Huntingbridge High School. Part of your job is to be school counsellor and you are the person that all pupils in the school can go to with help when they need advice.

You will have a number of students coming to you today to ask you some questions, they will be looking for advice, you need to consider the best advice you can give to help them deal with the problem.

You will also need to think about where they might go for more advice, or help.

While you are doing this your school police officer is online with some other experts and you can send them a message or ask them a question. They will also see the answers you give to the problems and may send you a comment on anything you say.

MOST IMPORTANT

Keep yourself safe first
