Education Wellness Newsletter aims to support parents and families navigating sensitive subjects

The Department of Education is proud to launch a Wellness Newsletter to be distributed to parents via school platforms every two months.

It aims to provide parents with professional support and advice on central themes important for children's journeys, including sensitive subjects related to health and safety.

The first newsletter has been produced in partnership with Public Health Gibraltar and focuses on Nicotine Pouches, which have been identified as an area of growing concern, particularly at Westside and Bayside Schools.

Director of Education, Keri Scott, says it's helpful to day informed and be aware of issues in advance as children grow and their experiences change.

Minister for Education, John Cortes, called it 'a great initiative'.
