Mental Health Awareness Training for Cardiff’s Education Sector
Supporting Staff and Students
Rising mental‑health needs in education
Teachers, lecturers and support staff face increasing demands as they support students with diverse mental‑health needs. Staff themselves may experience stress or anxiety, and early intervention can prevent issues from escalating.
What the training covers
Mental health awareness training helps educators recognise early signs of stress, depression and anxiety in colleagues and students. The sessions form part of the Surviving v Thriving programme and teach practical strategies for responding to mental‑health challenges. Training can be tailored to school and university settings.
Benefits for schools and universities
A workforce that understands mental health is better able to support students and colleagues. Training reduces stigma, promotes a culture of openness and can decrease absenteeism. Sessions are offered in Cardiff or online, making it easy to roll out across departments.
