Daryl is a model pupil at school, but he and his mum are experiencing serious communication problems. Whether Daryl has mental health problems is assessed in this whole-school video on healthy living and Every Child Matters.
An estimated one in 10 children has mental health problems. This video for primary teachers follows the Barnet Primary Project Team as they work with Daryl to help resolve his problems.
This small multi-disciplinary mental-health team covers every primary school in the London Borough of Barnet, helping pupils and families who are struggling to deal with a wide range of mental health issues in school and at home.
With unique access to Daryl's story, this video casts light on a subject which is all too often ignored or misrepresented by the media.
