"I wish my social worker had sat down with me & explained this. I just remember thinking, you can’t take him away. You can’t split us up. This isn’t right. No one asked, & no one listened. I felt brushed to the side." Powerful blog from 19 yo Hannah #CEP childrenscommissioner.gov.uk/2023/01/25/sib…

New data from @NHSDigital backs up what I found in my Attendance Audit - that mental health is a serious barrier to children engaging fully in their education. We must act to stabilise these growing rates of probable mental health disorders. childrenscommissioner.gov.uk/2022/11/30/new…

5. Social Media is a real problem, not just a bit of fun. 55% of all teenage children saw real-life violence (not from a movie) online last year. Adults need to protect children better online.
