Children and young people's mental health and emotional wellbeing (health and wellbeing needs in South Tyneside)

Additional Needs Assessments Required

  • An updated JSNA topic on Looked After Children and Child Protection is required.
  • A more detailed needs assessment on self-harm in children and young people may be needed given the levels of anecdotal feedback received on the issue.
  • There is a gap in our understanding with regards to parental and wider (non-school staff supporting children and young people e.g. social workers, GP's etc._ professional views and options with regards to mental health and emotional wellbeing of children and young people.
