Question
What action is the Welsh Government taking to ensure that pupils in Denbighshire schools have adequate access to mental health and pastoral support?
Answer
Answered by Minister for Education and the Welsh Language
In March 2021, The Welsh Government published a framework on embedding a whole school approach to emotional and mental well-being. The framework, which is statutory guidance, aims to support schools in assessing and reviewing their own wellbeing needs, and developing plans to meet those needs.
Our budget for 2024-25 includes £13.6m funding to support implementation of the framework, including £167,428 for Denbighshire County Council.
