A Kent school has given teachers a day off to go Christmas shopping in an attempt to improve their wellbeing.

St Paul's primary school in Swanley say they've given staff time off in December because mental health is nationally at an all time low - a move which has made some parents unhappy.


Dr. Julian Spinks joined us in the studio to discuss the issue.
