Student mental health

Mr WAKELING: I have been recently contacted by many concerned parents across Knox who have raised issues about the mental health of their children in the wake of six lockdowns. While schools have returned, many students are still experiencing poor mental health and these children need our help. The Liberals have committed to fixing this important issue by committing to providing an additional 2000 mental health practitioners in our schools. It is imperative that the state government adopts this plan to stop our kids from falling further behind.
