At Walk in My Shoes (WIMS), we are delighted to welcome you to our School Portal.
The School Portal is a secure, private, online platform for primary and secondary teachers and school staff in Ireland to highlight and share what they are doing in their schools, classrooms and communities to promote positive mental health and wellbeing. The portal aims to be a central hub of ideas and resources to help schools across the country in their wellbeing and mental health promotion.
What you can do on the School Portal
By signing up to the School Portal, you can share ideas and see what other schools are doing. You’ll find hundreds of mental health projects and activities from schools across Ireland. As well as general information about them, you’ll be able to access resources, like videos, photographs, PowerPoint presentations, posters, leaflets, classroom exercises, and events or activity plans. You can search the portal by school and class level, school name, type of resource, or keyword so that it’s as easy as possible for you to get the wellbeing information and supports most useful to you. And, of course, you can upload and share your own projects and resources to showcase your work and help other schools to build mental health awareness.
