World Mental Health Day, 10 October, is a day to help raise student’s awareness of mental health. Why is Mental Health an important topic to promote in our school and at home?
The aim of education is not just about academic attainment or whether a student is achieving exemplary test scores; it is in fact about developing an all-rounded student in all aspects. This includes the student’s intellectual, social, physical and moral capabilities, and it is important that your child strikes a balance in all these aspects.
A key aspect of schools today is a focus on supporting the overall development of every single student. This includes personal and social development in addition to academic development and can provide a wider range of opportunities than ever before.
