Be You Consultants tailor an ongoing approach to work closely with your school to identify, develop and implement mental health and wellbeing plans, strategies.
Suicide prevention, response and postvention support
An educator's response can help guide and support children and young people who may be thinking about or have been impacted by suicide or critical incident.
headspace Schools & Communities supports schools to prepare for, respond to and recover from a suicide, critical incident or natural disaster.
Currently, postvention planning is available only to Australian secondary and combined schools across the government, independent and catholic sectors.
The Be You team can work with all schools in a postvention or critical response (including Primary Schools).
Suicide prevention, response and postvention resources are available on the Be You website.
If your school is currently responding to, or recovering from, a suicide or attempted suicide, please contact your Be You state or territory manager.
