DfE publishes final report on Mental Health Services and Schools Link

Article summary

The Department for Education (DfE) has published its findings from an independent evaluation of the expanded Mental Health Services and Schools Link. The report used a mixture of survey outcomes, research observations and qualitative case studies to conclude that the expanded programme ‘delivered a number of valuable benefits over the course of the evaluation, albeit largely depending on the overall context for joint working in each area’. Workshop feedback suggested it is an appropriate format for any future, wider roll-out of similar joint-working training.
