About This Publication

Further Education (FE) teachers often express concern that they do not have the knowledge or expertise to meet the needs of learners who experience mental health difficulties. This resource, which has been supported and funded by the Learning and Skills Council as part of their commitment to the professional development of the FE workforce, aims to address that concern by providing materials that teacher educators, or those providing staff development opportunities, can use as part of the training of teachers.

The toolkit comprises a set of cards (download pdf above) and a CD (see CD electronic contents below).
