'...a girl in Year 5 said 'you've got no dad and you've got two mums and I think you're really weird'. And I think I didn't even tell the teacher this time, I didn't even cry, I just walked away.‘ Alisha, 7

Different Families

Matthew’s Story

“If I knew what trans meant at an earlier age, I might have had an easier time at school. I went through a period of being very anxious and depressed because I was so confused about my own gender identity, and didn’t feel I had anyone to talk about it. I couldn’t figure out why I was so uncomfortable in my own skin.”

Who is affected by LGBT hatred?

HBT bullying affects pupils who…

• are LGBT+

• are thought to be LGBT+

• have friends and family who are LGBT+

• work hard in class

• don’t conform to gender stereotypes

• are perceived to be different

…and it can affect staff and parents too

Lived Experience

Jonny Benjamin MBE

40% who have been bullied skip school because of it

84% of trans young people have self harmed

45% of trans young people have attempted to take their own life

22% of LGB young people who aren’t trans have attempted to take their own life

The impact

Mental health for pupils: How schools can create a culture of wellbeing

22nd February 2018

Who we are

Becky Lauren Ben

Time to Change

• We are Time to Change, a growing movement of people changing how we all think and act about mental health problems

• Too many young people with mental health problems are made to feel isolated and ashamed. The way you act towards them can change their life.

How we work:

Community leadership

Hubs

Social marketing Targeted work with

children and young people

Targeted work with employers

What is mental health?

Everyone has mental health and this can be thought of in terms of how we feel about ourselves and the people around us, our ability to make and keep friends and relationships, our ability to learn from others and to develop psychologically and emotionally.

Being mentally healthy is also about having the strength to overcome the difficulties and challenges we can all face at times in our lives – to have confidence and self-esteem, to be able to take decisions and to believe in ourselves.

Rethink Mental Illness
