Self-harm Management Toolkit for Educational Settings

This self-harm management toolkit is designed to support those working with school-age children and young people under 18 in educational settings. It aims to:
– increase understanding and awareness of self-harm
– support staff in being aware of risk factors and signs that are associated with self-harm
– provide tools for educational settings (and staff within them) for responding to students who self-harm,
– raise awareness in educational settings of what support is available locally in responding to self-harm and when/how it can be accessed to support the system and people around the individual.
