Welcome to the Hillpark Mental Health Support staff zone. The Mental Health of our pupils is just as important as it is for us as without this, we would not be able to deliver quality education to the young people of Hillpark.
There is lots of advice and support on offer through Glasgow City Council as well as external agencies and charities.
