How does S.M.I.L.E. work? • Students having problems can approach the mentors who can be easily recognised by their wristbands and badges • They can also ask Mr Cook, Amy or their Year Advisor to arrange for them to meet up with a mentor • Meetings will only occur in school time during breaks and before school, and only once or maybe twice a week.
