Petition Action

SAVE STUDENT MENTAL HEALTH

Petition Details

We want the government to implement country wide teacher training, so that teaches can better understand mental health, in order to help students improve theirs.

Additional Information

The government has the power and influence to be able to create new training for teachers, on a country wide scale. This will give us the best chances of being able to improve a large proportion of the British, student body's mental health.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you are concerned about the mental health of students, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. Teachers already undergo training before becoming a teacher, and the Initial Teacher Training (ITT) Core Content Framework includes content on consideration of SEND, Disadvantage and Mental Health: assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/974307/ITT_core_content_framework_.pdf

We could accept a petition calling for changes to the ITT framework, but it would need to be clear what changes you want.

We have published the following petitions, which you might like to sign:

Create a statutory Mental Health & Wellbeing Policy for all schools & colleges: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/611264

Increase funding for mental health support in schools: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/607356
