Abstract: This study focuses on assessing the current status of mental health literacy, coping skills with mental health among secondary school students in Hanoi. Based on a survey of 450 students from three schools representing different types of institutions and both urban and suburban areas, the study employed the AMHLQ questionnaire, the ACS-SF coping scale, and the SDQ to collect data, followed by descriptive, correlational, and multivariate regression analyses. The results indicate that most students demonstrated relatively good mental health literacy and coping skills; however, a considerable proportion (27.6%) was found to be at risk of or exhibiting signs of mental health disorders. These findings highlight the importance of enhancing mental health literacy and developing coping skills as core intervention strategies for preventing mental disorders in schools, while also providing essential empirical evidence to inform the development of policies and programs that support school mental health tailored to lower secondary students in Vietnam.
