The mental health of young people in secondary schools is a current concern.

• Do you feel equipped to identify mental health needs in your learners?
• Do you have the knowledge and understanding to adequately support them?
• Do you understand where your responsibilities start and stop?

This book helps you address these questions and more, providing a range of

evidence-based strategies and tools. It introduces the various risk factors

involved, shows how you can build resilience in your students, and focuses

on identifying and supporting both specific mental health needs and particular

groups of learners.
