In response to growing concerns about student mental health, the Department of Education is expected to implement comprehensive mental health and wellness programs by 2025. These initiatives will aim to create supportive school environments and provide students with necessary resources for mental well-being.
Programs may include:
- On-site mental health professionals in schools
- Mental health first aid training for teachers and staff
- Integration of mindfulness and stress-reduction techniques in daily routines
- Partnerships with community mental health organizations
The goal is to foster resilient, emotionally healthy students who are better equipped to handle academic and personal challenges.
