The Mind Masters program is aligned to our Sustainable Places Strategy targets for Healthy & Inclusive and Productive Places, and has been designed to complement the NSW curriculum. Each participating school received student and teacher workbooks, teacher guides, info-graphic posters and access to a digital portal that contained more information, videos and games.
Designed with a clinical psychologist, this unique education approach is a combination of pre-recorded segments and interactive live streaming. It arms students with the knowledge to better understand mental health and build their own resilience and wellbeing.
Initial results show improvements in students’ ability to understand and implement mental health strategies, which will be further embedded over the three-year program. Feedback from teaching staff has also been positive, with this program helping to address emerging issues for young people during COVID-19.

Back to Case Studies“There are times when school and home life for students can often be difficult to deal with, so giving our young people the skills to build their resilience to get through tough times will make a world of difference not only to learning outcomes these messages in a fun and creative way, which allows the students to connect with the content in a really positive way.”
