Children and Young Peoples Mental Health
Why is this important 1 in 5 children and young people suffer from
anxiety 2-3 in 100 young people (11-18) will have a
diagnosis of depression 1 in 15 young people carry out self harm 75% of young offenders have a mental health
issue (ONS 2012)
Why `Time to Change`
In 2011We contacted Time to Change – they sent us some leaflets for our community bus event
In 2012They sent us badges , leaflets and a DVD for our community bus event
In 2013They attended our local high school with a `pop up village` to support our event! – Raising awareness of mental health for children and young people
Impact on the School
Schools welcomed multi agency staff into the school to raise awareness of mental health
It was an opportunity to let young people know that the school nurse was available to see them on a regular basis and offered a confidential `drop in` service
Young people were made aware of other services available within the local community – Youth service, Cruse bereavement support , Targeted youth support , Samaritans.
Time to Change - resources
THE DIFFERENCE THIS HAS MADE
Young people were made aware of local services Young people were given information on positive
mental health – how to keep healthy Where to go if you need to talk Its ok to talk about mental health concerns Who / where /when help is available Resources available from `Time to Change`
Time to Change resources

Time to Change resources

Strategies for support
Appropriate referral Non judgemental approach Young person understands the limits of
confidentiality Identifying the young persons own support
network Listening Offering alternative strategies See the young person not the mental health issue Looking after yourself
The impact on support for Young People

Nuneaton Academy
Our Experience
The Challenge
Last October ‘Time to Change’ launched its first ever competition in schools to get students talking about mental health. Students were asked to design a campaign that challenges people’s attitudes and behaviour towards people with mental health problems.
Over 50 schools in the West Midlands area signed up to take part in the competition.
How Students from the Nuneaton Academy got involved
Students and Teachers in the Academy took part with campaigns using;Creative writingShort filmArtBaking (Including a message on biscuits about time to change and how to make a pledge)Power pointsStalls at parents eveningPosters around the schoolInformation on school websiteArticle in school news letter
My experience being involved in the campaign
Lead Staff member for the Academy promoting the campaign Supporting the Wellbeing Student Leader group with their
ideas to promote this Created a Form Time Programme for a period of 6 weeks that
explored mental wellbeing and lead up to the competition Providing materials and making links resources available to
whole school Finding any opportunity to get the message spread throughout
the academy and community Creating an online page for students and staff that explore
mental health, 5 a day to improved mental wellbeing and links to Time to Change Website
How its impacted on my work Staff, students and parents becoming increasingly more open
talking about mental health issues Students with a mental health illness are talking more openly
about their experiences. Staff and students understand the importance of my role
supporting students with their wellbeing. Everybody talking a more active role in breaking the taboo
surrounding mental health illness This time last year we asked 108 students at random what they
understood in relation to wellbeing only 8 students could provide some kind of response. This year we are in the process of collating feedback from the same number of students. Already from 70 responses I have 47 qualitative responses that discuss how we take care of our body and mind, as well as attitudes towards others
Why wanted to explore this To generate greater awareness about mental wellbeing and
to allow staff, students and local community to be more informed of how mental illness does not discriminate anyone and impacts on all areas of life.
To help staff, students and the community to be able to talk openly about mental health in positive manner which would allow those with an illness to be able to access support they may need without feeling judged.
With a high level of students in our school experiencing mental health illness to help normalise their experiences
What we achieved and unexpected benefits/successes
Students, staff and parents talking more openly about mental health issues.
Young carers have come forward in relation to supporting parent/s with a mental illness
Positive language associated with mental health with students, parents and teachers.
A year on and the assemblies we delivered had a lasting impression with staff and students.
Sharing Time to Change message at a student voice network meeting
From this we have developed a strong student leader well-being group. New challenges are being accepted by students.
Student and parent feedback given to Head Teacher to say how effectively the issues of mental health have been addressed.
