Answer

The Healthy Happy Minds Pilot concluded on 31 March 2023. An evaluation of the pilot has been carried out and I will assess its findings as I seek to better support the emotional health and wellbeing of learners. The Independent Counselling Service for Schools (ICSS) remains available to post-primary age pupils.
