The tool builds on the eight principles set out in Public Health England’s guidance: Promoting children and young people’s emotional health and wellbeing: a whole school and college approach, and shows how schools and colleges can promote and support mental wellbeing through all aspects of school and college life.
The tool is designed for school and college senior leadership teams to support them to build on their current practice. We hope this tool will enable Senior Leadership Teams to:
- Feel supported and informed about the range of mental health and wellbeing resources available
- Facilitate a conversation about practical steps the school or college can take to support staff and students with their wellbeing e.g. at governing body or SLT.
