Wellbeing

We place a strong emphasis on wellbeing at Royal School Cavan. Our Wellbeing programme is managed
by our Student Care & Support Team and our Student Wellbeing committee. Assemblies each morning
and planned wellbeing events ensure that students are given the correct forum to discuss issues that are
important to them, in a friendly and supportive environment. The Student Care & Support Team ensures that
all topics applicable to each year group are discussed with the ultimate aim to enhance student’s wellbeing
and educational progress.
We are delighted to fl y the Pieta House Amber Flag in our school. This fl ag awards schools who lead programmes
in their school that create a healthy and inclusive environment. An environment that supports mental wellbeing
and eradicates the stigmas associated with mental health issues.

Anti-Bullying

Every student in the school is entitled to respect and to be free of any type of bullying. The school works
proactively, as far as it can to prevent bullying from taking place. A “reform don’t blame” approach is adopted
by the school to deal with bullying. The school has an anti-bullying charter and a specifi c email for students to
report bullying; respect@royalschoolcavan.ie

Career Guidance and Counselling

Our Guidance Counsellors are available to students on an on-going basis for advice on subject and career
choices. They are integral in providing our students with personal, vocational, and academic guidance.

The Guidance Counsellors work with all senior students on an individual basis working on college applications
and access programme applications. Students and their parents are very welcome to access our Guidance
Department to discuss any matter relating to career and subject choice. Our Guidance Counsellors also plan
and deliver a guidance programme at Junior Cycle.
