In NSW, students studying Stage 6 Personal
Development, Health and Physical Education investigate the
priority issues for improving the health status of Australians. One
of those priority issues is mental health problems and
illnesses.

topic and has developed a range of
materials to support teachers to deliver lessons on these
issues.
A recording of the
webinar is available for viewing with your staff or with your
