Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills

School Bullying and its Impact on Mental Health: Discussion

Dr. Niall Muldoon:

I have not. There has been little engagement in this area by the other side. There is much to be said for creating an opportunity to pilot it across a number of counties. I have no doubt there are enough trained professionals available and willing to do two or three days a week. It would take a great deal of pressure off many teachers and parents in many different areas, and prevent much of what we are talking about. If the committee is willing to make a recommendation in that regard, I would be delighted.
