Mental health: Primary school head teachers speak out about lack of support
Some primary school pupils are being repeatedly rejected for mental health support, BBC News has learned.
There’s been a near 50% increase in referrals to child health services from pupils aged 11 and under, over the past three years. But some children are on a waiting list for years before being offered help.
Three head teachers spoke to the BBC about the lack of support for children in their schools.
