It is vital that we listen to young people - the second speaker at our webinar is JohnJo from the #ElephantInTheRoom group. Their recommendations bring together some themes from today's webinar & for @Education_NI as we plan the mental health in schools framework.

Great discussion tonight around mental health, covids impact on it and many other things

Danny Baker MLA@danielbakersf

Chairing a special P&C meeting tonight (well @johnjocfc7 took over). I really needed that today, to hear the passion they have for improving mental health, poverty and homelessness was inspirational. Truly talented youth, who will make this place better ✌

@OrlaithiF_MLA @amhNI @AwareNI @BarnardosNI @InspireWBGroup Very clear to see orlaithi. Many of our members massively affected due to this, some destined for law and medicine massively downgraded. Particularly of working class backgrounds which already have such negative mental health issues. Disgraceful, a U turn needed and an apology !

Right move 2day re:GCSEs but does not undo the stress + anxiety caused by A-Level results which is having a damaging impact on #mentalhealth of many young people. The public health emergency already placed strain on peoples mental health,this has been exacerbated over recent days

Sinn Féin@sinnfeinireland

Sinn Féin Órlaithí Flynn has said the A-Level results crisis is having a detrimental impact on the mental health of our young people sinnfein.ie/contents/57754

The sheer amount of distress this has caused is unacceptable. After 5 months of lockdown and worry. We are given this. This needs fixed ASAP 💜🐘💛

Belfast City Youth Council@belfastcity_yc

We welcome the Minister's U-turn on GCSE Grades. However he has yet to make a change on the AS/A level Results. Many of our young people still are waiting anxiously for university places. This is completely unacceptable #ALevelProtests #ALevelsResults @CCEA_info @Education_NI

Thanks for the shout out @nichildcom. This is doable, there are various mental health charities and campaigns who have very simple asks which can help so much. Ours are: 1. Mental health curriculum programme 2. Online safe space 3. Mental health dictionary. #mentalhealth 💜🐘💛
