18/0960 Counselling in Schools

Description

The Council is seeking to appoint an external Service Provider that is experienced and appropriately qualified to implement and deliver a counselling service for children and young people aged 10 years and over (up to and including young people aged 18 years) that is embedded within a whole system approach to supporting mental health and wellbeing, including whole school and early intervention approaches. The counselling service will be a universally accessible service and should be available to secondary school pupils (primarily), and pupils aged 10 and over in our primary schools. The service should complement the range of whole-school and targeted approaches already available in schools to help support the mental, emotional, social and physical wellbeing of children and young people.
