SECTION 1

Over three-quarters of education professionals feel they don't have enough guidance or support at work to manage their own mental health. In this section, we get introduced to Mental Health within the Education sector and raises the importance of mental health training and the common triggers of poor mental health. 

Section 2 of our Mental Health in Care Training - Mental health problems brought to life by visual characters
SECTION 2

In this section, we’ll be raising awareness of common mental health problems, particularly anxiety and depression. But we’ll also be looking at how stress and loneliness can have a big influence on your mental health.  If you’re interested in learning more, this section also has extra information on a small number of the other common mental illnesses!

SECTION 3

This section is your Wellbeing Toolkit that can help you look after your mental health on a daily basis. We appreciate that everyone has their own ideas about how to approach their mental health and wellbeing, so this section has a variety of insights, mini exercises, recommendations and some food for thought so you can use what suits you.

Section 4 of our Mental Health in Care Training - External resources
SECTION 4

If your wellbeing is becoming a top priority for you, and you feel like you need extra support, there’s plenty of avenues you can go down - or even suggest to your family, friends and colleagues if they need some guidance. This section provides some useful external resources that you may wish to use to aid your wellbeing.

About this course

Sadly, 67% of teachers and other education professionals describe themselves as stressed. This statistic only worsens when you consider that 74% of education professionals consider they do not have enough guidance about mental health and wellbeing at work.

The education sector can be a particularly demanding industry, which can have a detrimental effect on employee wellbeing. In fact, almost 30% of teachers work more than 51 hours a week, on average.

Teachers and other education professionals are at breaking point and wellbeing needs to be pushed way up the agenda. Our Mental Health Awareness Training for Education is broken down into 4 easy-to-follow and beautifully animated sections which aim to educate learners on the various types of mental health problems, the science behind our thinking, and where to go to for external help. The course is suitable for anybody working in the education sector.

Some helpful bits but..

A lot of patronising and asking someone to "check online resources". Good for corporate whitewashing 😊

Course title misleading
RatingRatingRatingRatingRating

I signed up to this course as it was titled Mental Health in Education but don't feel that it was relevant to this at all and should more aptly be titled 'Mental Health Education' as it was teaching how to look after my own mental health and signs to look out for.

Very useful
