Abstract

Mental health issues are getting worse all around the world. A significant contributor to disease and disability is poor mental health. The urgent need is for people to have better wellbeing and mental health. Despite the fact that a National Mental Health Programme since 1982, very little has been done too far to provide services related to mental health. As the students’ mental health issues have been worse and more pervasive in recent years, intervention measures have grown more and more necessary, drawing attention to health promotion. A student’s life is significantly influenced by their schools. They offer a thorough framework that includes chances for kids to learn and the encouragement of development on all fronts-physical, emotional, psychological, and social. One of the key links to pupils’ good mental health is their teachers. This paper aims to highlight the significance of mental health and examine the roles that educators and schools play in the promotion of mental health.
