Do teachers have to report self harm to parents if you're over 18? - January 27th 2015, 02:37 PM
Hi, I'm 19 at a sixth form college in the UK. My personal tutor at college knows that I'm finding things hard to cope with at the minute and he keeps telling me that I can go talk to him about any problems I'm having. I really feel like it would help to tell him about it, he's really approachable and I think he would be understanding about it. I was just wondering whether teachers legally have to report self harm to parents even if I'm over 18?

I would greatly appreciate any advise on the matter, thank you
