How to Help Teachers
Episode 5
Tuesday, 30 November, 2021
In this fifth and final episode hosts Steve and Seth start by reviewing the main themes raised throughout the podcast regarding the importance of mental health in schools, how mental health has been affected by the pandemic, and how these effects vary across socio-demographic groups. Then, they turn their attention to how schools, communities, and policy makers can address these concerns by making specific recommendations for change at both the individual (trainings and interventions) and organizational (school policy and practice) levels.
