"A significant number of pupils exhibit difficulties with anxiety, social interaction, concentration and attachment, and schools/centres report that they encounter lengthy delays in accessing appropriate external support for those pupils who need it," the ETI said.rising waiting lists for Children and Adolescence Mental Health Services in particular.
Only two-thirds of pupils said that people who had different sexual orientations would be welcome in their school. "Clearly, there is a disconnect between the topics that pupils want to learn about and the reality of the curriculum which they experience," the ETI report said. "This aspect of the curriculum is too important for the potential wellbeing of pupils to be either omitted or skimmed over."
"The evidence is clear that there is selectivity and potential avoidance of the areas taught within the preventative curriculum," the ETI report concluded.
