Glasgow school teachers to be trained in eating disorder and self harm awareness

School staff are to be trained in eating disorders and self harm awareness to help children who are struggling with their mental health in Glasgow.

There is a bid to increase the number of staff in secondary and primary schools trained in self harm awareness. Secondary school teachers will also get the chance to do a suicide prevention course next year.

And all pastoral care teachers are to be trained in eating disorder awareness by June 2023.
