This resource on mental health focuses on the importance of mental health and well-being. It maps opportunities as to when mental health can be delivered across the national curriculum with suggested activities.

Teaching young people about mental health and well-being is essential, as it promotes awareness and understanding. At each key stage, we have used the National Curriculum, providing links and examples of how mental health can be delivered through a range of subjects.
