About INSIDE OUT for Children

OBJECTIVES Our mission: To inspire children to develop a ‘toolkit’ of life skills and strategies to look after their mental wellbeing. We aim to rebalance the education system to one where the mental wellbeing of children is as important as their academic achievement. ACTIVITIES Children in the UK are suffering from low mental health. Covid has made this crisis worse. There is a call to action for schools to adopt a whole-school approach which has a stronger focus on mental health promotion and the prevention of mental health problems, alongside early interventions for children who have existing or emerging mental health problems to prevent these problems from escalating and the need for specialist support. We make it easy for busy teachers to promote positive mental wellbeing. Our 5 Keys to Happiness evidence-based framework weaves through everything. It is the foundation for our unique, interconnected pathways which provide both: Universal support for all children to promote mental wellbeing and prevent mental health problems – through our online Activity Library of 200+ activities, Wellbeing Programme with 2 years of assemblies and lessons that cover RSHE requirements, and INSIDE OUT Award which enables schools to implement a culture where the happiness of children is at the heart of school life. Targeted interventions exclusively for vulnerable and underperforming children with emerging or existing mental health issues who are at risk of not reaching their full potential to prevent these problems from escalating – through our offsite Magical Days Out. Core learning can be revisited back at school in a developmentally appropriate way via our universal support.
