The mental health crisis amongst young people is escalating, yet, I think our education system lacks structured programmes that teach students how to cope with adversity and build emotional resilience.
I think it is vital for society that we work on preventative measures.
We cannot afford to overlook any more children struggling silently with their mental health. By incorporating resilience sessions into the curriculum we could provide them with the support they need.
