We’re excited to share that the MindEd Whole School and College Approach elearning programme is now available!

This expertly co-produced resource supports schools and colleges in creating mentally healthy environments for learners, staff, and the wider community. Developed by mental health and education professionals, with inputs from people with lived experience, the content is practical, evidence-based, and aligned with guidance from the Department for Education and NHS England.

The approach promotes collective action to improve wellbeing, behaviour, and learning outcomes. It includes early intervention, staff development, and pupil-focused work, all underpinned by a positive, system wide universal focus on wellbeing.

The six elearning sessions include:

3. Education policies and wellbeing strategy – Exploring relevant policies and their implications.
4. Using the evidence base – Applying research to shape supportive environments.

The National Breast Imaging Academy, and NHSE TEL elearning for healthcare collaborate to offer easy to access elearning to support workforce issues threatening the delivery of breast imaging services across the country.

Rolling out over 2025, four new elearning sessions will be available on a range of topics. The first being breast care for transgender and gender-diverse people.

This new elearning session is designed to equip healthcare professionals with the knowledge and skills necessary to create a safe and affirming environment for transgender and gender-diverse people. Within the session, participants learn about the importance of understanding gender identity and gender affirmation, navigating NHS gender-affirmation pathways, and the specifics of gender-affirming surgery such as mastectomy and feminising top surgery.

Healthcare professionals play a crucial role in dismantling barriers that prevent transgender and gender-diverse (TGD) individuals from accessing necessary medical care. Studies have shown that the TGD population experiences worse healthcare outcomes, including lower cancer survival rates, due to anticipated and experienced discrimination.

By educating healthcare professionals on the specific needs of transgender and gender-diverse people, the session aims to improve health outcomes and ensure that all individuals receive the high-quality care they deserve.
