AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Background: Emotional wellbeing of young people has high global and national priority. UK high schools are under pressure to address this but lack evidence-based guidelines.
Method: Students (N=23) (aged 11-16 years) and staff (N=27) from three urban UK high schools participated in qualitative interviews to explore the feasibility and acceptability of an approach to emotional wellbeing support. Key components were: self-referral, guided self-help, and delivery by school pastoral and support staff.
Findings: Confidentiality, emotional support, effectiveness and delivery modes were important to students. Organisational values influenced feasibility.
Conclusions: Understanding a school's moral and operational framework can enhance the development of suitable emotional wellbeing support.

Previous studies found that mobile health (mHealth) technology has been offering a promising solution to these issues. However, the perspectives of mothers on existing mental health services and their mHealth needs are still not well understood and warrant further exploration.
