Subject: Mental Health and Well-being Survey.

🔺The unprecedented circumstances following the COVID-19 pandemic including the closure of schools, new system of online classes, uncertainties about examinations and future career, restrictions on outdoor activities due to lockdown etc. have led to stress and anxiety among many students, calling for empathetic handling through psychosocial support.

🔺The Ministry of Education (MoE) has undertaken ‘MANODARPAN’ initiative, covering a wide range of activities to provide psychosocial support to students, teachers and families for mental health and emotional well-being during the COVID-19 outbreak and beyond.
