Expand services available in schools for immediate mental health and well-being

Rejected 9 signatures

What the petition asks

Implement a structured mental health and well-being support system in schools for students and staff to access at all times.
Counselling is not enough. More expertise is needed to give the proper help and advice to students with action. The time for just talking is over!

I am a Psychotherapist working as a counsellor in schools. I see so many students being missed or just left and occasionally being made to wait for far too long to receive the actual help they need. By the time they receive it, it’s too late!
