Abstract
In the context of increasing demand for specialist mental health (MH) services, emphasis has been placed on school-based early intervention to prevent or de-escalate later MH issues. The case for a whole-school approach (WSA) has been well made, both in research and government policy (Weare & Nind, 2011; PHE, 2015; DHSC & DfE, 2017).
WSAs integrate targeted support for those who need it within efforts to build resilience universally across the school system. This comprehensive approach acknowledges the context-specific nature of MH, and the many interrelated social, economic and physical risk and protective factors, both within and beyond the school gates.
