Learning for Mental Health and Wellbeing

Amid widespread concerns about the mental health of young people in the UK and internationally, find out how a developmental neuroscience-based approach will help children learn the knowledge and skills they need to manage their mental health and wellbeing. According to this innovative approach, learning such skills in schools should be thought of in a similar way to learning to read, write or do maths.

Joshua Stubbs of the University of York’s Department of Education and the PSHE Association outlines the power of taking a developmentally-tailored, proactive approach to promoting good mental health and wellbeing during childhood and adolescence. He will also talk about ways to empower adults, such as parents and teachers, to support children from as young as four-years-old to develop skills that support good mental health across the life-course, from early childhood to later life.

Join Joshua and learn some easily actionable, developmentally-appropriate and evidence-based techniques that you can use to support children to learn how to take care of their mental health safely and effectively.
