Social, Emotional and Mental Health

For example, a child or young person may:

  • have difficulty managing their relationships with other people
  • are withdrawn
  • behave in ways that may hinder their and other children's learning
  • behave in ways that have an impact on their health and wellbeing

Children and young people may experience a wide range of social and emotional difficulties which manifest themselves in many ways. These may include becoming withdrawn or isolated, as well as displaying challenging, disruptive or disturbing behaviour. These behaviours may reflect underlying mental health difficulties such as anxiety or depression, self-harming, substance misuse, eating disorders or physical symptoms that are medically unexplained. Other children and young people may have disorders such as attention deficit disorder, attention deficit hyperactive disorder or attachment disorder.
