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.
Fund teacher training for mental health first aid and suicide prevention
Government to fund Mental Health First Aid Training and Suicide Prevention Training for all Primary and Secondary School Teachers
Mandate trauma-informed training in justice, healthcare, education & social care
Introduce legislation to require professional bodies to include accredited trauma-informed training as a mandatory requirement for professionals in justice, healthcare, education & social care. Embed into standards, inspections & safeguarding frameworks to ensure consistent understanding of trauma.
Require mental health training for all HR staff, managers and directors
Introduce mandatory mental health training for all HR staff, managers and directors. Ensure the training is comprehensive, realistic and meaningful; to learn what it is like for an employee with a condition to work, struggle and cope within a workplace.
Review guidance on school behaviour policy to support mental health & inclusion
We call on the Government to launch a review of the statutory guidance on school behaviour policies which looks into ending any punitive measures and investing in restorative, trauma-informed approaches.
