'Mini Medics' training for children
We feel very strongly about the fact that ALL children should learn how to look after their mental health from a young age so that it becomes as instinctive and natural as looking after their physical health.
"The Ofsted framework requires Ofsted inspectors to routinely assess and report on pupils’ mental health and wellbeing under the key judgement area of personal development. This includes aspects such as resilience, confidence, independence, and how to keep mentally healthy." (Mentally Healthy Schools website). We have help your children to develop these skills by offering fun, engaging sessions tailored to KS 1, KS 2 and KS 3 pupils. If we can teach children to put these skills into place when they are young, they will have the tools to deal with life's ups and downs as they arise.
During the sessions we will cover:
- Understanding mental health
- Emotions and feelings
- Mental health problems
- Talking about mental health
- Looking after our mental health
This mini 3 hour course can be delivered in one or multiple sessions. It is a great introduction for all children and teaches them that mental health is a part of everyone's lives. It is also an ideal starting point for training some of the older pupils to be Mental Health Ambassadors / Mental Health Peer Supporters, supporting younger children in the school.
Students will receive a certificate of completion at the end of the course. This course can be taught during normal school day sessions, as an enrichment activity, during lunchtime clubs or during an after school club.
