Somerset Wellbeing Framework - Self-Harm Training

1 in 15 children and young people self-harm, that is at least 2 in every secondary classroom. Spotting the signs can be difficult, and approaching the subject with young people can be a challenging experience for school staff. However, with the right knowledge and resources, schools can make a real difference.

This self-harm training aims to:

• Define what self-harm is

• Provide a better understanding of why people self-harm

• Explore your own attitudes, values and feelings about self-harm

• Explore the wider issues that self-harming raises in schools and communities

• Provide framework for working with young people

• Raise awareness of resources that can help

• Sign post you to support networks
