Abstract

Stigma surrounding mental health issues in educational settings remains a significant barrier for students in accessing support and managing their emotional well-being. This study aims to investigate the role of education in reducing mental health stigma and fostering a more inclusive and empathetic school environment. Using a literature review approach, the article synthesizes findings from various academic sources to highlight the importance of accurate, culturally sensitive, and age-appropriate mental health education. It emphasizes the need for comprehensive teacher and staff training to identify early symptoms of psychological distress and respond with empathy and without discrimination. Furthermore, the availability of accessible and confidential counselling services within schools is identified as a key factor in building a supportive climate. The study also underscores the importance of collaboration between schools, families, and communities in promoting mental health literacy and creating a safe space for students to thrive. By addressing stigma through education and systemic support, schools can play a transformative role in safeguarding students’ mental health and promoting long-term psychological resilience.

Abstract

This paper critically investigates how the adoption of local e-learning platforms affects digital literacy advancement and learning outcomes in primary school education. Focusing on disparities in access and the influence of pedagogical and evaluative design, the study employs a qualitative literature review approach with thematic synthesis. Results highlight that, while technology holds promise for leveling educational opportunities, digital equity is contingent upon comprehensive system support extending beyond mere device provision. Responsive instructional design, robust assessment mechanisms, and meaningful collaboration among teachers, families, and community stakeholders are crucial for ensuring that e-learning platforms facilitate not only technical access but also genuine engagement and skill mastery. The investigation reveals that digital literacy for primary students flourishes where digital platforms are integrated into school cultures that value inclusivity, formative feedback, and adaptive learning. The research underscores the need for ongoing structural investments, sustained professional development, and policy frameworks attuned to local heterogeneity. This study offers essential insights for the strategic expansion of digital learning, contributing to a more reflective and equitable digital education ecosystem for young learners.
