‘Our Children Deserve Better: Prevention Pays’ annual report (Davies et al 2012) makes reference to facts that at least 1 in 10 children under the age of 16 have a diagnosable mental disorder. White et al (1997) glean that the children who are impacted by issues for social, emotional, behavioural and academic problems can be at risk throughout life. The question I pose, should schools play a part in the helping find a resolve and support of these issues?
The predominant ethos of any school practice should be about promoting positive social, emotional wellbeing and supporting children with mental health problems. Ecological theorists suggest that schools should establish productive programs for all children that are informed by the individual
