Mental Health

Students will be explicitly taught:

• how to maintain their well-being,
• better understand common mental health problems and their symptoms,
• recognise signs of mental distress,
• know when and how to seek help and support, and
• develop empathy and care towards people with mental illness.

Students will develop critical social-emotional skills such as emotion regulation, self-control, coping, problem-solving, seeking help and goal-setting. They will also learn to maintain healthy lifestyle habits and better see setbacks as opportunities to learn and grow.
