Thank you for signing our open letter calling for urgent education reform to protect children's mental health.
We have an important update: We've decided to open our letter to include Educational Psychologists alongside Clinical Psychologists.
We recognise that Educational Psychologists are uniquely positioned to witness the impact of current school policies on children's wellbeing and bring valuable expertise to this campaign.
What's changed:
- Letter now represents both Clinical and Educational Psychologists
- Added key statistic: 92.1% of young people experiencing School Distress are neurodivergent
- Included recommendation for neurodiversity-affirming education as compulsory CPD
How you can help:
- Share with any Educational Psychologist colleagues you know
- Encourage them to sign: https://chng.it/cj2ZCDXLmy
- Continue spreading the word in your professional networks
The more professional voices we have, the stronger our collective call for change becomes.
Thank you for your continued support in advocating for children's mental health and wellbeing.
Best wishes,
Natasha and Hayley
