DfE Mental Health Support Team (MHST) survey

As an Emotional Wellbeing or Emotional Support Team School we need your support and views.

Our services are part of the national Mental Health Support Team (MHST) programme that is run between NHS England and the Department of Education.

On an annual basis the Department for Education conduct a survey to evaluate the MHST programme nationally to support with programme support and aspirations for 100% coverage of MHST services in schools nationally.

You will receive an email with a specific link (this helps identify which wave of the MHST programme your school joined). The survey is aimed to explore areas of success and improvement needed. Links will begin to go out on Friday 8 May and will close on Friday 26 June.

If your school has not received the email, need to change the contact details we have for them or need to respond in an alternative format, then please contact the Department for Education directly by emailing MentalHealth.PROFESSIONALS@education.gov.uk, including the name and address of your school in the subject line. You can also use this address for any other questions you may have.

Responses from schools and colleges will be anonymised and aggregated.

As with previous surveys, we would be grateful for your support in completing the survey, the feedback from it will really help provide ciritical knowledge on which direction to develop the service.
