Stress causing pupils to commit suicide

Stress causing pupils to commit suicide, says union | News crumb | EducationGuardian.co.uk: "Phil Walley, of Hardenhuish school in Wiltshire, said social dysfunction had potentially disastrous effects on pupils' education achievement.
He said: 'Those who underachieve in their education are much more likely to go on and live dysfunctional lives and be unable to support a stable family life for their own children.
'As a society we are in danger of creating an expanding, perpetuating and toxic circle. If we are not careful we could reach that crossover point where no matter how hard schools and teachers try, they will not be able to overcome the negative impact of broken and dysfunctional families.'"

Yvonne Bishop-Weston Nutritionist, London says "Stress can have many profound effects on optimal health and potentially lead to long term damage if not treated. It is a particularly viscious circle to get trapped in but there's many things you can do nutritionally to help the body deal with it"
