Mental Health in Colleges: Challenges and Opportunities Liz Maudslay, Policy Manager LLDD

About FE 20000 14 to 15-year-olds attending colleges on a full or part time basis. 744000 16 to18-year-olds study in colleges : 433000 stay on in schools 75000 16 to 18-year-olds undertake an apprenticeship at college 1.9 million adults study in further education colleges

Further Education Offer Technical and professional education for young people at all levels GCSE and A Levels High proportion of Level 1 and 2 17% of students have learning difficulty or disability 17% of 16 to 18-year-olds were eligible for free school meals compared to 9% in maintained schools and academy sixth forms

The Challenge 50% of mental health problems are established by age 14 and 75% by age 24

The FE Challenge 85% of colleges reported an increase in students with disclosed mental health issues 81% reported having significant numbers of students who had undisclosed mental health difficulties. 74% of colleges referred students experiencing mental health crises to A&E in 2015/16 FE students do not receive DSA; in house mental health support varies widely between colleges

The FE Challenge Wrong demographics disproportionally recruits from areas of greatest deprivation 16-18 transition Many students fall between CAMHS and Adult Services Wrong geography Multiple geographies commissioners and providers Wrong part of education system! Greater understanding of schools and universities

Recent Issues English & Maths BTEC changes Home schooling

Opportunities Culture of further education New Government initiatives addressing young people’s mental health Potential to work across agencies

Holistic Approach Leadership & Management Ethos & Environment Curriculum Student Voice Staff Development & Support Targeted support Parents & Carers External Partnerships Audit & Monitoring

Whole college approach to student and staff wellbeing Focus on mental health and resilience, not just mental ill health Create college wide wellbeing strategy Embed wellbeing into all students’ tutorial programmes Link with sports department Some examples of good practice available at www.acer.ac.uk/resources and on AoC website mental health resources

All Staff Development All staff approach: Linked to an organisational mental health strategy Use free resources: www.minded.org.uk need to consider how embedded within college setting Develop support mechanism for staff

Focused Staff Development Create capacity in organisation Introduce Mental Health First Aid training for some staff Other specialist training: Suicide prevention Dealing with self harm Look at who can help with this – some colleges now able to opt into free CCG funded training

Further Opportunities Potential for funded Children and Young Peoples Wellbeing Practitioners in colleges e.g. Ashton Sixth Form College and Tameside FE College are going to receive funding via CCG to employ a Wellbeing Practitioner to support young people with low level mental health and wellbeing issues

In Summary High level of concern but also of commitment Importance of developing college wide strategy for developing student resilience and well being Staff development – which staff need what College relationship with health service – what you can give each other
