'Check In' and Pulse

Information regarding our new wellbeing and engagement tool for students

‘Check In’ and Pulse

Since the beginning of 2021 Chatham High School has started each day with a wellbeing initiative called ‘Check In’. Check In is a 20 minute lesson that aims to build on strengthening relationships and supporting student wellbeing. During this lesson staff and students work though a range of lessons and activities to support the social, emotional and educational wellbeing of students.

PULSE is a new tool that is being used across the state in many schools to add to the Check In experience and will start at Chatham High in Term 4. It is a tool for measuring the week-to-week wellbeing and engagement of our students.

Once a week, students will be prompted by email to complete a Check In through PULSE which consists of 5-6 questions and can generally be completed under 5 minutes. Depending on how the student is feeling and responds to the questions, the school can then provide support if requested through our wellbeing team at Chatham High.
