Cambridge CEM’s new post-16 lesson plan for the Cambridge Wellbeing Check provides teachers with hands-on guidance for understanding and improving students’ wellbeing.
The pressures that post-16s face in the classroom can put enormous strain on their mental health. The Covid-19 pandemic exacerbated the mental health challenges students and teachers faced, as discovered in this survey of over 400 teachers about their experiences of teaching through the pandemic.
In a recent study of 600 secondary students, those students “experienced a marked decrease in the extent and type of their social interactions during England’s lockdown of early 2021”. Whether it’s day-to-day modern life or examination periods, it’s essential that schools understand and are trying to improve their students’ wellbeing.
The Cambridge Wellbeing Check provides schools with a clear picture of their students’ mental wellbeing and helps them understand what they need to do to promote wellbeing in the classroom.
