Overview:

The Department for Education (DfE) is offering a grant for eligible state-funded schools and colleges to undertake senior mental health lead training. Details of how to apply for the grant are below.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This course has been quality assured for the DfE senior mental health lead training grant. Course Code: SMHL100

Through our experience working with schools, we know that Mental Health Leads who may already have a foundational level of experience want to explore ways to deepen and progress their school’s action plans or consolidate knowledge and relate back to theory to continue to drive change. This training will help you to make the next steps and grow in your leadership role and strengthen the work you are already undertaking in your school. 

Training will include the role of the Senior Mental Health Lead as set out by the DfE, a greater level of theoretical input and discussion

NB: This is a 2 day training course (1 full day and 2 half days) and should be attended by the same person on each day. This will be face to face training. All dates will be held at MAKE UK Technology Hub.

**IMPORTANT INFORMATION**

The DfE have asked us to reassure learners that your grant is reserved once you have successfully completed the first form confirming your eligibility. DfE has so far honoured every grant application made, and retrospective payment of grants is normal practice.
