This resource aims to introduce pupils to the concepts of mental health and well- being. The number of children and young people experiencing mental health difficulties is rising nationally and there has been a wealth of research suggesting the importance of early-intervention and resiliency based approaches in order to promote positive mental health for our young people and prevent mental health difficulties.

With this in mind, this resource aims to help pupils to understand the importance of good mental health and facilitate the development of their own toolkit of strategies and skills which they can use to support their own emotional well-being and mental health.
