World Mental Health Day – staff toolkit

Friday 10 October marks World Mental Health Day and this year’s theme set by the World Federation for Mental Health is 'access to services: mental health in catastrophes and emergencies' which highlights the urgent need for timely and compassionate support. For those working in education, the pressures can be particularly intense.

Staff toolkit

To support schools, a World Mental Health Day Staff Toolkit has been developed. The toolkit includes resources to help education professionals:

• Stay mentally well
• Manage stress
• Access support when it’s needed most

Please share this resource across your networks to help ensure staff are aware of the support available.
