A two in five also say that schools are putting pupils health at risk by pushing academic performance above all else.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrom an independent study we know that 50 per cent of adult mental health problems are already established by the age of 14, and yet mental health education is still not compulsory at schools,&#8221;\u00a0Dr Antonis Kousoulis from the Mental Health Foundation says.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is crucial that we reach young people early and give them the knowledge and skills they will need to understand and protect their mental health in today\u2019s complex world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Half of the parents taking part in the research felt their children had a better understanding about mental health discrimination than previous generations.
