Every secondary school in England is entitled to one free place on the Youth Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) one-day course. This three-year programme, funded by the Department of Health, will offer every secondary school in England the opportunity to send a delegate to attend this training by the end of 2020.
The course aims to provide delegates with the skills and knowledge to be able to spot the signs of mental health problems in young people and to help them to access the right support.
If a school is interested in hosting the training, then they will be offered up to four additional free places.
