Ministry notice targets students' mental health
The Ministry of Education has recently issued a notice requiring that more targeted and effective measures be made to protect students' mental health, including making mental health education a part of curricula in middle and primary schools.
The notice said that educating students about sports, art and campus culture and instilling a hardworking spirit can play an important role in helping build positive mental health in students in an all-around way.
It also underlined the importance of offering students various forms of life education, including teaching them how to deal with frustration.
Further, it urged schools, families and society to strengthen their coordinated efforts and take active measures to help students deal with psychological problems they face in studies, life, relationships and self-awareness so they avoid the mental crises such problems may create, the notice said.
The notice also said that schools should immediately contact parents when accidents occur on campuses and investigate such situations under the guidance of local education and police authorities.
