Prevention and postvention guidance relating to self-harm and suicide for UK educational and youth organisations
Self-harm and suicide among young people are major public health concerns and delivering prevention and postvention support is crucial. Educational and youth organisations play a vital role in both prevention and postvention. However, evidence shows a lack of understanding of effective interventions, and limited awareness of the available guidance in this area. We reviewed current self-harm and suicide guidance available to education and youth or…
Implementing a regional School Health Research Network in England to improve adolescent health and well-being, a qualitative process evaluation
This study identifies several barriers to be addressed and facilitators to be enhanced in order to achieve successful implementation of School Health Research Networks in England which include providing a unique offering to schools that is not too burdensome, supporting schools to take meaningful action with their data and to work closely with existing organisations, services and providers to become meaningfully embedded in the system
Using systems thinking to understand how the South West - School Health Research Network can improve adolescent health and well-being
Schools offer a valuable setting to promote good health and mental well-being amongst young people. Schools are complex systems and therefore systems interventions are needed to improve pupil health and well-being. This paper presents a qualitative process evaluation of the South West- School Health Research Network, a systems level intervention. The evaluation is based on interviews with school staff, local authorities and wider stakeholders. Gi…
Assessing the Feasibility of a Peer Education Project to Improve Mental Health Literacy in Adolescents in the UK
Many mental health problems begin in adolescence and occur on a spectrum of severity: early recognition and intervention is important. This study is a quantitative feasibility study of the Mental Health Foundation's Peer Education Project (PEP). Attrition, psychometric properties of questionnaires, indications of improvement on a range of outcomes, and sample size required for a powered trial of effectiveness were assessed. 203 students completed…
Creation of a Pilot School Health Research Network in an English Education Infrastructure to Improve Adolescent Health and Well-Being
Schools play a significant role in promoting health and well-being and the reciprocal links between health and educational attainment are well-evidenced. Despite recognition of the beneficial impact of school-based health improvement programmes, significant barriers to improving health and well-being within schools remain. This study pilots a School Health Research Network in the South West of England (SW-SHRN), a systems-based health interventio…
Adolescent Experiences of the Covid-19 Pandemic and School Closures and Implications for Mental Health, Peer Relationships and Learning
The COVID-19 'lockdown' and multiple school closures disrupted the daily lives and routines of the entire UK population. However, adolescents were likely particularly impacted by such measures due to this time being key for social and educational development. This qualitative study explored young people's experiences of lockdowns and school closures. Fifteen secondary schools within south-west England were initially contacted and three schools pa…
A Qualitative Study Exploring Access to Mental Health and Substance Use Support among Individuals Experiencing Homelessness during Covid-19
People experiencing homelessness have higher rates of mental ill-health and substance use and lower access to health services compared to the general population. The COVID-19 pandemic led to changes in service delivery across health and social care services, with many adopting virtual or telephone support for service users. This paper explores the experiences of access to community-based mental health and substance use support for people experien…
Impact of School and Peer Connectedness on Adolescent Mental Health and Well-Being Outcomes during the Covid-19 Pandemic
School closures and social distancing measures during the pandemic have disrupted young people's daily routines and social relationships. We explored patterns of change in adolescent mental health and tested the relationship between pre-pandemic levels of school and peer connectedness and changes in mental health and well-being between the first lockdown and the return to school. This is a secondary analysis of a longitudinal 3-wave panel survey.…
A process evaluation of a peer education project to improve mental health literacy in secondary school students
This study will enable us to refine the logic model underpinning the peer education project and identify areas of the intervention that can be improved. Findings will also inform the design of a future effectiveness study which will test out the extent to which PEP improves mental health literacy
