Well there's a surprise... if only somebody had said something about the reading test being too hard this year! 🙄

@Tom_MHWB As am I, Tom! My email with the link to this was just above my email from Twitter with you posting about this! I'll be in that online queue bright and early tomorrow....

School Health Research Networks to improve young people's health & wellbeing exist in Wales & Scotland but are yet to be developed & evaluated in England.

@sw_shrn has identified the main barriers & facilitators to implementing a pilot network

What a great day! I really enjoyed presenting and meeting everyone at our #SWSHRNevent yesterday.

It was lovely to have a room full of people dedicated to improving young people’s mental health!

[South West - School Health Research Network @sw_shrn]

A wonderful workshop yesterday discussing findings, outputs and resources from our pilot study. Thanks to all of those who attended for some great discussions and lots of ideas for the future of the network! #SWSHRNevent #PublicHealth #healthyschools

Have spent the week listening to young people talk about their school environment and the interactions they have there and how they impact on their mental health, and this illustration is brilliant and so on point!

Thanks for sharing @EmilyWidnall

How does the school environment impact young people's experience of anxiety? We asked secondary students to talk about the good and bad parts of school life in relation to well-being, and translated it into an illustration. #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek

Our research in schools includes themes around connectedness and belonging in school. Connection is so important to #mentalhealth.

So true of my daughter's experience of school. So often cover teachers, and so often not qualified in the subject. Teachers are leaving in droves and I really feel for them and the students. The whole secondary education system needs a shake up. https://t.co/rf9Uf9pcCw

[Missing The Mark @_MissingTheMark]

Wow. I now have 20,000 followers on Facebook.
The majority of these are families who want to connect and feel validated for the experiences when their children struggle or cannot attend school.
I am just saddened there are so many of us.x

Before work this morning, on #WorldMentalHealthDay, I tuned into a podcast while walking the dog, the episodes with author Susan Cain and Dr Michael Keane. I'd recommend it to anyone who hasn't found it yet, particularly if you have an tendency for introversion and anxiety.

[South West - School Health Research Network @sw_shrn]

On #WorldMentalHealthDay2022, we hope you were able to dedicate time to yours and your students' mental health. Our network and research empowers schools to improve wellbeing using scientifically robust pupil surveys and benchmarked reports to identify areas of focus.

@warwickuni where is the best place to eat on the open day?

[Georgina Hopkins @GeorgeLHopkins]

@RealDMitchell... I loved Back! Looking forward to the next episode. Hope you enjoyed filming in my old hometown.

@ShreddiesUK . Funny ad until the end scene... sexist body shaming of women! So outdated and offensive.

[Georgina Hopkins @GeorgeLHopkins]

@NickyB_actress Not sure it's a good message to/about women!

[Georgina Hopkins @GeorgeLHopkins]

Q. How ensure developments now aren't out of date at launch? A. Don't do 2 year programs, do more small ones! Spot on, A. Meilke. #SITSconf
