Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills

Mental Health Supports in Schools and Tertiary Education: Discussion

Mr. Paul Crone:

Exactly. Equally, there is a lack of understanding, and this is where the entire system needs to collaborate. Unless someone has worked in a school, it is very difficult to understand and make a practical and realistic recommendation that a school can operate. It is those interactive, collaborative meetings that do not take place and are very difficult to take place because the creation of time within the system is difficult.
