by The children are taught that “worried and depressed” are not mental conditions to contain the British spiral -shaped unemployment crisis.
The teachers were told that they had to avoid to encourage the students to diagnose “normal feelings” such as problems such as anxiety and depression themselves.
The radical change in new instructions that have been issued at schools occurs in the middle of the concern about the number of young people who are signed sick.
Bridget Phillipson, the education secretary, told The Telegraph: “For too many children today, their understanding comes to how they can manage their mood and regulate their emotions, and come from social media rather than their parents, teachers or trained experts.
“Our new RShe [relationships, sex and health education] The curriculum will cause children to develop grit and resilience from the beginning and to understand them that they feel that they are a little bit down or anxious for a while, is normal and does not have to worry.
“With mental health, just like physical health, better than healing – which is why we also ensure that in every school there is an access to mental health and reduces child poverty with more free school meals and provides our plan for changes to give every child the best start in life.”
The number of 16 to 24 year olds who are not in employment, training or training (neet) has increased to an almost ten-year-old from one million.
Last week, a report warned that a strong increase in teenagers and young adults about disease advantages for psychological health problems behind the trend.
It has to consider that teaching children about mental health led to the daily ups and downs of life too over -medical.
In the meantime, schools with new instructions have been issued to ensure that their lessons differentiate between real conditions and ordinary feelings.
The guidance states that the students should be taught “that the worries and feeling of concern and down are normal, everyone can influence all at different times and are not a sign of a condition for mental health”.
It adds that teachers should tell the students how “these feelings can be managed by considering them as normal” and not as a symptom of diseases.
In schools it is said that they should teach young people the “characteristics” of common types of mental illnesses, including anxiety and depression.
You should also “contain carefully presented factual information about the prevalence and characteristics of serious psychological health states”.
However, the instructions emphasize: “This should not be discussed in such a way that normal feelings are called mental conditions.”
The changes are available in new instructions that were issued to the schools for teaching Rhse last week.
Some of the instructions on mental health were contained in an earlier draft of the guidelines created by the last Tory government.
But Ms. Phillipson tightened her to the boys because of growing concern about unemployment.
In particular, she added that schools are not allowed to teach mental health in a way that leads the students to diagnose themselves with conditions.
The change in the instructions comes after Ms. Phillipson has promised that young people would be taught the value of “Grit” to help them deal with the “ups and downs” of life.
Concern about the expansion of the claims for mental health
At the beginning of this year, a government report showed that psychological problems are an essential driver for unemployment over the years under 35 years.
Research showed that young people in whom diseases such as fear were diagnosed are almost five times more unemployed than their old colleagues.
Ms. Phillipson’s changes to the school instructions are the latest evidence of concern within Downing Street on the extent of the claims for mental health.
Labor attacked the Tories when it was still opposite because they pointed out that too many people were signed under milder conditions
Mel Stride, the former secretary for work and pensions, warned last year of the risk that the “normal fears of life” were overdrived.
In an interview with the telegraph, he said that people could get a sick grade from their family doctor if they said that they “felt quite depressed and bluesy”.
Liz Kendall replied by branding his comments “Ignorant” and insisting on it: “You are not credited ill in the long term because you feel a bit bluesy.”
However, since he entered power, Labor has tried to start disease advantages for mental health in order to bring people back to work.
No. 10 has argued that there is a “progressive and moral” case for the restriction of handouts for those in which milder mental illnesses are diagnosed.
Rachel Reeves was only forced to achieve a rebellion of Backbench MPs due to a huge rebellion of Backbench MPs.
