53% of young people in the UK feel anxious about their future on a daily basis.

Today is Youth Mental Health Awareness Day, and we're celebrating the determination, creativity, and resilience of young people. This year's theme, #BuildFutureYou, is all about helping young people build for the future, one step at a time.

At IDL, we understand that academic progress and emotional wellbeing are closely connected. Frustration, embarrassment, and setbacks can chip away at confidence, making learners less eager to participate and engage at school. 📚

We're supporting youth mental health by providing numeracy, literacy, and wellbeing support, helping to create positive learning experiences that contribute to improved confidence and emotional wellbeing. 😊
