PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Mental Health Services: Schools (5 June 2020)

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what recent discussions he has had with the Secretary of State for Education on school-based support for children with mental health needs when schools reopen to all pupils.

Asked by:
Dr Rosena Allin-Khan (Labour)

Such discussions have not taken place between the Secretaries of State. However, I have met several times recently with the Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Children and Families (Vicky Ford MP) to discuss how health and education can work together to support children and young people’s mental health and wellbeing as schools reopen.
