Thousands of Auckland tamariki and rangitahi are set to benefit from a new mental-health pilot programme with early intervention technology, designed to help them access immediate support.
Under the initiative, over 20,000 students at 30 West Auckland primary and secondary schools will be provided with the Pulse app, that tracks their mental, social and physical well-being for change and allows them to request help from teachers.
Jesse talks to Kimberley Malloy, assistant principal of Peninsula Primary School about their experience of using Pulse in the school for the past three months.
