An easy way to tackle mental health

Pastoral issues Pupil wellbeing
The on-going focus on mental health must continue and the Make Time in November campaign is a quick, easy and effective way to kick-start this work, says SecEd editor Pete Henshaw.

This month, teachers in 285 secondary schools across England and around 185,000 of their students are doing their bit to help end mental health discrimination by participating in Make Time in November – an important campaign that SecEd is happy to promote given our on-going focus on supporting young people’s mental health.

The programme comes from Time to Change, a leading campaigning body on mental health discrimination, and coincides with a nationwide media campaign designed to communicate that mental health is as everyday and ordinary as physical health. Participating schools are using assemblies, form time, tutor groups and PSHE lessons to take students through the Make Time resources.
