Leadership of mental health has gained increasing importance in school life. For those stepping in to this role it can be daunting or feel that the role is nebulous with no clear remit. This, which draws from our more in-depth DfE authorised Senior Mental Health Lead training will equip staff with an understand the role of the Senior Mental Health Lead as defined by the DfE, the 8 areas the Mental Health Leads work across, the role of policy in this area, links to PSHE and SEL and help you to articulate provision in school at both universal and targeted level.
This training is not a substitute for the more in-depth Senior Mental Health Leads training. Delivered by the same team as lead our DfE authorised Senior Mental Health Lead training this session is ideal for those who are relatively new to supporting mental health provision in your setting, part of the wider mental health team in school. Alternatively where trained staff have moved on, this is an ideal CPD for staff new in to role where your school is not eligible for or has already had a grant from the DfE.
