The mental health of children is becoming more of a complex and challenging issue for practitioners who are recognising that children and young people have to deal with difficulties and issues in their daily lives which can impact on their well-being, and also present as a safeguarding concern.
Children's families and the role of education are highlighted as pivotal in terms of access to early help, and a focus is placed on the good practices of child protection and statutory mental health services.
