STUDENT MENTAL HEALTH AND WELLBEING TASKFORCE IS ESTABLISHED

The AISSA Student Mental Health and Wellbeing Taskforce, in collaboration with Emeritus Professor Donna Cross, focuses on developing practical strategies for implementing whole-school wellbeing practices that emphasise building staff capacity and enhancing student outcomes.

The Taskforce recognises that schools play a powerful role, with the most important approach being the prevention, protection, and promotion of mental health and wellbeing, which are a daily responsibility of everyone. The Taskforce provides evidence-based resources to support staff capacity building and promote student and staff wellbeing through a whole-school approach.
