Exam results stress?

It’s one of those junctures in the year when we’re especially aware of the pressures young people face at school.

And when, in our experience, heads and teachers often find themselves reappraising the way they think and talk about mental health issues with students.

If that’s where you are, then please be sure to put your name down for this year’s Make Time campaign and your free Make Time resources before the busy new term gets under way.

As you may know, Make Time - run by Time to Change - now takes place every November, involving many hundreds of secondary schools. Once again we’re keen to ensure that as many schools as possible participate in what has become the biggest nationwide campaign to fight mental health stigma and discrimination in schools.

Can we count on your support?

Please sign up for this year and, once again, you will be entitled to a set of compelling new resources, videos, session ideas and plans designed to get your students talking about mental health and to suggest ways they can look after themselves and friends.

In return all we ask is for you to commit to scheduling four short, stimulating weekly sessions in form time, tutor groups or assemblies during November.

Please make sure your students are joining the thousands of others who’ll be speaking out against mental health stigma this November.

Best wishes,
The Children & Young People’s team
