    • Self-harm guidance for staff Self-harm guidance for staff

      Self-harm is the deliberate act of causing harm to the self, with or without an intention to die from this harm.

      Research suggest that 1 in 4 young women and 1 in 10 young men have self-harmed at some point in their life. Self harm rates have also risen fastest among young people since 2000.

      From our conversations with college staff, we know that self-harm among students is a common concern for staff members.

      The resource includes information on:

      • why young people self-harm
      • signs to spot in students
      • how to start a conversation with a student if you're concerned
      • further ways to support students
      • who else to involve

    • Anna Freud Mentally Healthy Schools Anna Freud Mentally Healthy Schools

      Around one in six 17 to 22 year olds has an identifiable mental health condition, and college staff report significant increases in students with both diagnosed and undiagnosed conditions.

      Further education is a unique educational environment with its own challenges.

      Staff may spend less time with students, making it more difficult to notice or raise concerns. Students may have additional pressures, like money or housing, which can contribute to mental health concerns.

      This section of the website will support college staff with some of the most common mental health issues they see in their students.


    • Managing crises

      If a young person is in crisis there is a "help I'm in crisis" button on our website which will talk you through what to do if you have or are thinking about harming yourself. There is lots of information that parents/carers and professionals may find useful, and is worth taking a look at.
