\nAbout one in five\u00a0young Australians<\/a>\u00a0will experience a mental health problem like depression or anxiety each year. The COVID pandemic has only\u00a0intensified mental health concerns<\/a>\u00a0in young people.<\/p>\n

In Australia,\u00a0decades of investment<\/a>\u00a0in early intervention and treatment services have not decreased rates of depression and anxiety. This has sparked more interest in what we can do to\u00a0prevent<\/a>\u00a0mental health problems. Schools are ideal settings for prevention because you can reach large numbers of students, help build healthy skills and habits, and capitalise on schools being both learning and social environments.<\/p>\n

Our\u00a0new research<\/a>\u00a0suggests, one promising way to prevent depression and anxiety is by ensuring students feel a strong sense of belonging and connection to their high school.<\/p>\n

What is \u2018school connectedness\u2019?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\u201cSchool connectedness<\/a>\u201d is about the quality of engagement students have with their peers, teachers, and learning in the school environment.<\/p>\n

It can include things such as, knowing teachers support them, having a friend to talk to about their problems, feeling like they can be themselves at school and like school is an enjoyable place to be, and actively participating in school activities.<\/p>\n

School connectedness has been linked to\u00a0better academic achievement and wellbeing<\/a>. But it is now attracting attention as a possible way to protect against depression and anxiety.<\/p>\n

However, existing research reviews have tended to look at cross-sectional studies (data collected at one point in time) rather than longitudinal studies (data collected over time). And they haven\u2019t considered anxiety and depression specifically, making it difficult to determine if there is a preventative effect.<\/p>\n

Our research<\/strong><\/h4>\n

In a\u00a0new study<\/a>, we investigated whether school connectedness prevents the onset of later depression and anxiety in 14 to 24 year-olds. We did this with funding from the UK charity, the\u00a0Wellcome Trust<\/a>\u00a0as part of its push to identify innovative\u00a0interventions<\/a>\u00a0for anxiety and depression.<\/p>\n

We systematically reviewed ten years of evidence examining relationships between school connectedness and depression and anxiety. After screening 3,552 potential articles, we found 34 longitudinal and two intervention studies which met our\u00a0inclusion criteria<\/a>. The intervention studies measured the change in participants\u2019 depressive symptoms before and after a program, compared to participants who did not receive the program.<\/p>\n

We then summarised the findings from the included articles.<\/p>\n

To ensure young people\u2019s perspectives informed our review, we also partnered with five youth advisers aged 16 to 21 with lived experience of mental health problems and\/or the schooling system in Australia, Indonesia, and the Philippines.<\/p>\n

Our findings<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Most studies found higher levels of school connectedness predicted lower levels of depression and anxiety later. Most studies examined depression.<\/p>\n

For example, United States\u00a0one study<\/a>\u00a0of nearly 10,000 students found higher levels of self-reported school connectedness (questions included, \u201cyou feel like you are part of your school\u201d, \u201cthe teachers at school treat you fairly\u201d) led to reductions in self-reported depressive symptoms in the past week. This effect occurred both later in secondary school and persisted into early adulthood, even when accounting for previous depressive symptoms.<\/p>\n

Another\u00a0study<\/a>\u00a0investigated the effect of a\u00a0whole-school<\/a>\u00a0health promotion program in over 5,000 secondary school students in India.<\/p>\n

The program encouraged supportive relationships between members of the school community, promoted school belonging, increased participation in school activities, and promoted social skills among students. The study found this led to a reduction in depressive symptoms 17 months later.<\/p>\n

Reflections from youth advisers<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Our findings resonated with the experience of our youth advisers. For example, one 18-year-old adviser from Australia reflected,
\nI\u2019ve had mental health issues my whole life [\u2026] I noticed the second that I moved schools to a more healthy environment, the rapid improvement of my mental health.<\/em>
\nAnother 18-year-old adviser from Indonesia explained,
\nKnowing your school is there for you really calms you down, takes one more thought out of your head, and more weight off your shoulders.<\/em>
\nMost of the studies were from high-income countries, primarily the US, yet our advisers stressed the importance of cultural context. One 16-year-old youth adviser explained the importance of religion.
\nIn Indonesia you can\u2019t really dismiss religion. You can\u2019t ignore it because it\u2019s so deeply rooted in our society and that in turn reflects (on) other things like our mental health and even school connectedness.<\/em>
\nInterestingly, we found one study reported higher levels of school connectedness led to higher levels of internal distress. Our youth advisers noted that sometimes feeling more connected to school can come with increased expectations from teachers and pressure to perform, which might increase anxiety in some students.<\/p>\n

What does this mean for schools?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Our findings show how schools matter for mental health and that fostering school connectedness might be a way to prevent depression and anxiety.<\/p>\n

Existing research<\/a>\u00a0shows there are a lot of \u201clittle things<\/a>\u201d teachers can do throughout the day in their\u00a0ordinary interactions<\/a>\u00a0with students to foster school connectedness.<\/p>\n

This includes, actively listening to students, being available and accessible, advocating for students, encouraging students in their school work even if they are struggling, having empathy for students\u2019 difficulties, and treating students like \u201chumans\u201d.<\/p>\n

Students are also\u00a0more likely<\/a>\u00a0to ask for help with their learning when teachers say hello, talk to them and take an interest in what they are doing, and show they are proud of them.<\/p>\n

Our youth advisers reinforced the importance of feeling acknowledged by teachers and peers and that students need to be able to safely express their identity. One 16-year-old youth adviser from Australia explained that feeling connected to school has many parts.
\nYou\u2019ve got that social aspect, but you\u2019ve also got extra-curricular activities, how you\u2019re going through your studies, your classes [\u2026] it\u2019s the positive emotions, it\u2019s the relationships, it\u2019s the meaning, it\u2019s engagement, the accomplishment, it\u2019s all of that. Once you feel supported in all these areas is when you feel connected.<\/em>
\nAcross the pandemic, school closures and remote learning have shaped a different appreciation of the significance of schools for mental health and wellbeing. The question now is how governments, schools and communities act on this information.<\/p>\n
