Teacher Training
In order to implement On My Mind, all teachers must complete a 24 hours accredited teacher training course developed to support successful implementation. Areas covered in teacher training include school mental health and well-being, theoretical underpinnings of mental health literacy, social emotional learning, hands-on practice delivering lesson components, addressing stigma related to mental health, and teaching skill tips to promote successful implementation. On My Mind accredited teachers should be confident in their skills to guide students in learning emotional and stress regulation, communication skills, coping with conflicting and challenging situations, building healthy relationships, and appropriate help-seeking for mental health problems.
On My Mind teacher training has been accredited by the Ministry of Youth, Sports and Education in Czechia, and supported by the Ministry of Education and Science in Georgia.
In 2021-2023, training will only take place in selected schools.
