The DfE has announced that schools, sixth form and FE colleges will be able to apply for a grant of £1,200 for senior leaders to gain the knowledge and skills they need to roll out an effective whole school or college approach to mental health and wellbeing. This grant funding includes training on how to use existing mental health resources more effectively, identify students who need mental health support, and on how to improve working with local mental health services so that children and young people who need specialist help, get this as soon as possible. Further details on the training and grant are available here.
