We expect over 500 mental health support teams to be up and running by 2024. Each integrated care system (ICS) is allocated a share of the mental health support teams in each year based on their local population of children and young people, and ICSs are expected to work in collaboration with health and wider local system partners to determine where the new teams will be located. Each team is expected to provide sufficient capacity to deliver services to between 10 and 20 education settings. The rollout of mental health support teams beyond 2023/24 will be set out in due course.</p> answering member constituency Lewes answering member printed Maria Caulfield question first answered 19/04/2023 16:25:44 answering member 4492 label Biography information for Maria Caulfield
