Provide funding so every school can have a full-time school counsellor
We call on the government to require every school to have a school counsellor. Many young people face multiple mental health challenges in school and do not have someone to get help from. This must be changed. Children must not have to suffer in silence anymore.
Mandate all teachers in mainstream schools receive SEN & mental health training
Fund mandatory SEN and mental health training for all teachers. We are concerned that many children with special educational needs are being failed, as mainstream staff often lack the skills and qualifications to support pupils with social, emotional and mental health needs.
Require all secondary schools to allow pupils to wear their PE kits on PE days
We want the Government to require secondary schools to allow children to wear their PE kit all day on days when they have PE, including allowing them to come into school wearing PE kits.
Mandate First Aid & mental wellbeing training for all school staff
I would like the Government to change the law to make it a statutory requirement for all school employees (teaching, non-teaching & support staff) to be trained in emergency first aid and mental wellbeing.
Introduce self-defence lessons into the PE curriculum in all secondary schools
I think all secondary schools should teach basic self-defence within PE lessons so that students not only have the skills to protect themselves, but the discipline to use those skills when necessary.
