All pupils should be made aware of the emotional health issues that we all face, and should be encouraged to support their peers. Within a healthy school the emotional well being of staff is equally crucial, and recognition of this needs to be built into school policies.
Teachers will want to encourage pupils to express and understand their feelings. The wider school environment should enable this and help build their confidence by openly addressing issues of emotional health and well being.
