Petition Make well-being and mental health an integrated part of PSHE from KS1 to KS4.

PSHE currently includes Sex Education along with skills to manage finances but does not seem to address the prevalent issue of mental health. The inclusion of well-being and mindfulness within these lessons are vital beginning to tackle this issue of poor mental health amongst young people.
