The importance of asking someone you are concerned about "Are you ok?" is a message you are never too young to learn. By giving young people the confidence to start conversations regularly and with real care, they will be the generation that can transform the way we look out for and support someone who maybe struggling; schools can play an important role in promoting this initiative.
The R U OK? Schools Program provides age appropriate lesson plans and worksheets for teachers, which will inspire students to support their friends. Students will begin to develop pre-helping skills and understand the importance of active listening and effective communication. Lifeline Shanghai can provide a variety of school based options for implementing the R U OK? Program in English language schools. |
