Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills

Mental Health Supports in Schools and Tertiary Education: Discussion (Resumed)

Ms Patricia O'Sullivan:

The fact that they are together for that first year and all singing from the same hymn sheet, is important. It is great for connection, which is another important matter for mental health.
