The Boxall Profile®

This evidence-based tool from Nurture UK guides school settings through an in-depth wellbeing measurement to monitor student wellbeing.

The tool aims to assist with identifying where additional support may be needed, set targets and track progress.  

It encourages a graduated approach to nurture, a concept which highlights the importance of social environments and its influence on social emotional skills, wellbeing and behaviour.

The two-part checklist should be completed by a member of staff who knows the student very well. As well as identifying need, it provides a detailed assessment to help decide next steps to support student mental wellbeing.

Please note that this is a paid-for resource, with pay-as-you-go options from £30 or £325 for an annual subscription.
