Suicide prevention approaches in schools

We've developed a range of practice stories that evidence good suicide prevention practice in Scottish school settings.

Introducing this practice guide

We've developed this guide to capture practice in across schools in Scotland.

Throughout the document those leading on the work in their area share in their own words why they started this work, what they have done and what has been achieved.

To complement this, a podcast has been produced which focuses on the work of three local authorities and discusses the common learning and their advice to others.

Views or statements shared in this document do not imply formal endorsement or promotion of any specific approach, service, or model. This document is not intended to provide clinical guidance or professional advice.
