Annual mental health screenings are among the measures taken to identify students experiencing emotional disturbance, the Dewan Rakyat was told on Tuesday (Nov 26).
Education Minister Fadhlina Sidek said Minda Sihat (healthy mind) screenings are conducted annually for all students between Year Five and Form Six.
