Make mental health awareness compulsory in the national curriculum

Closed 242 signatures

What the petition asks

We would like Mental Health studies to be compulsory in the secondary schools, to raise awareness. This will help students be supportive of everyone with mental health issues, and understand how to help someone such as their friend or family member.
