answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/02/2018 answer text <p>Development of the Green Paper included extensive engagement with experts and many stakeholders through webinars, meetings and a day long focus group with children and young people. We are also using the public online consultation to gather views on how best to implement the proposals, what selection criteria to use for the trailblazer areas which will test roll-out of the proposals and which examples of best practice we should draw on for implementing the Mental Health Support Teams.</p><p> </p><p>During the consultation period, we are also working directly with stakeholders and delivery partners to inform the trailblazer programme and decisions on which delivery models we should test. We will continue to engage experts and stakeholders as we develop the detail around the teams and how they will be rolled-out. We have held various face to face events to ensure that we capture the views of those with relevant experience in this field and those who we hope will benefit from the proposals. This includes four stakeholder roundtables across the country, a parliamentarians’ roundtable and a series of focus groups with children and young people, parents/carers and professionals.</p> answering member constituency Thurrock answering member printed Jackie Doyle-Price question first answered 28/02/2018 13:04:03 answering member 4065 label Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/02/2018 answer text <p>Mental Health Support Teams will be trained to deliver evidence-based interventions for children and young people with mild/moderate needs. The teams will work collaboratively with senior designated leads in schools and colleges and other professionals such as educational psychologists, school nurses, counsellors and social workers to assess children and refer them on for further treatment if necessary. Over the course of the consultation period we are seeking views on the exact role of the teams.</p><p> </p><p>Many schools recognise the important role that making school-based counselling services available in school settings can play and we know from our mental health in schools survey that around 61% of schools offer counselling. The intention of the new Mental Health Support Teams, is to provide the additional, trained health provision that the evidence suggests is needed, complementing existing mental health provision in schools in a way that secures better joint working and understanding between health services and education. We will work with clinical and other experts to design the curriculum for training staff in the mental health support teams, including the interventions that they will be trained to provide, following the consultation. We will test how the teams work through trailblazers, beginning in 2019.</p> answering member constituency Thurrock answering member printed Jackie Doyle-Price question first answered 28/02/2018 13:16:09 answering member 4065 label Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price
