Schools And Teachers Role In Mental Health Promotion Among Adolescents

Abstract

The urgent requirement is to enhance adolescents' mental health and wellbeing. Due to the challenges, they experience and the changes they go through, a larger percentage of teenagers are more likely to experience mental health issues. This research is a systematic evaluation that examined the various methods that schools and instructors can support and help students who might have mental health issues. The researcher identified during this procedure by doing a systematic literature search using particular internet databases, such as Jstor, PubMed, Springer, and Google Scholar. The articles reviewed were those that were released between the years of 2003 and 2023. According to the data, teachers should actively assist in spotting pupils who are exhibiting warning indications of mental health issues. Since recognising students with problems can be difficult for teachers, giving them enough mental health training would help them recognise the needs of their students' mental health and send them appropriately to healthcare providers when necessary. Schools should prioritise utilising the current infrastructure, providing teachers and other staff with adequate resources, fostering a welcoming environment, and raising student awareness through financially supported teacher-led mental health training programmes. Numerous guides and frameworks for school mental health have been established by researchers. However, schools and teachers alter these frameworks in accordance with their particular school's culture while also taking into account the unique mental health requirements of their students
