Are you looking for practical ways to create sustainable mental health training in your school? 

 

Programme created by experienced  lead teachers for teachers.

Tried and tested materials judged by school practitioners as outstanding.

This programme builds on our successful pilot programme funded by Health Education England and has been clinically quality assured by Manchester CAMHS.  It was developed and is delivered by expert school-based practitioners from mainstream and specialist provision throughout the 5-19 age range; successfully combining theory, practical support and resources to enable you to train and support staff in your own setting.

 

This programme will explore how:

  • mental health needs can manifest in a classroom environment and how these may change over time
  • pupils with neurodevelopmental difficulties such as ASC, may express their mental health needs
  • specific support and interventions can be evaluated and accessed
  • to action plan towards a whole school approach to mental health and wellbeing and building capacity within your school team
