Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill
The Commons is considering amendments made by the House of Lords to the Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill. This stage involves reviewing and deciding whether to accept, reject, or further amend the Lords' proposed changes before the bill can become law. The bill focuses on improving children's mental health, wellbeing, and school provision across England.
This bill affects millions of school-age children and their families across the UK, with particular impact on schools' capacity to support mental health and wellbeing. The outcome determines what statutory duties schools and education authorities will have regarding child welfare, potentially changing how schools allocate resources and support services.
