New online resources, designed by health and education experts, are going to be provided to schools and colleges to boost mental health support for staff and pupils, encouraging them to talk more confidently about the anxieties and concerns they feel as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. Part of this initiative is a new £95,000 pilot project in partnership with the Education Support Partnership, which will focus on teachers’ and leaders’ mental health, providing online peer-support and telephone supervision from experts to around 250 school leaders. Further information is available here.
