New measures to support mental health in schools
There will be new guidance for schools, produced by the PSHE Association and the Department for Education, will aim to help school teaching on mental health problems and will provide a new visionary blueprint on counselling services and new detailed lesson plans for teachers.
Education Secretary Nicky Morgan said: "We send our children to school to learn life lessons both inside and outside the classroom. The new guidance published today will give teachers the confidence to teach mental wellbeing sensitively and effectively, while the lessons plans will give them the material needed to inspire them. There must be no trade-off between learning about mental health and academic success. By improving teaching on this subject we will help young people make sense of mental health issues and teach them how to keep themselves and others healthy."
Childcare and Education Minister Sam Gyimah said: "The new guidance and lesson plans will help make sure that every single school in the country is a place where mental health needs are identified and where appropriate support is provided sympathetically and without stigma."
