Please supply any mental-health related data for 5-18 year olds (school aged population).

We said

​Thank you for your enquiry regarding mental health data for school age children.

Unfortunately, we do not hold data on mental health disorders or have access to patient treatment plans.

However, please see the following link to a project with NHS Digital that we assisted with: https://digital.nhs.uk/data-and-information/publications/statistical/mental-health-of-children-and-young-people-in-england/2020-wave-1-follow-up.

The Adult Psychiatric Morbidity Survey and study of Mental Health of Children and Young People in England both published by NHS Digital contain a wide range of data about mental health in the population.

If this information does not meet your needs, NHS Digital would be better placed to answer your enquiry. They can be contacted via email at enquiries@nhsdigital.nhs.uk.
