<p>We are taking action to protect the mental health of all children and young people.
Following on from our Green Paper on transforming children and young people’s mental
health, we are:</p><p>- incentivising every school or college to identify and train
a Senior Lead for Mental Health;</p><p>- creating new mental health support teams
in and near schools and colleges; and</p><p>- piloting a four-week waiting time to
allow swifter access to specialist NHS services for those children and young people
who need them.</p><p>The Green Paper has the potential to significantly improve early
intervention and prevention, along with expanding the current children and young people’s
mental health workforce.</p>
