Abstract

This paper reports findings from a qualitative evaluation of the Targeted Mental Health in Schools (henceforth TaMHS) programme in Cumbria. Focusing on the two most widely documented problems in TaMHS implication at the national level – the style/content of basic training provided to school staff, and a restrictively short lead-in period – the analysis explores their impacts as perceived by participants in the programme, and makes recommendations for future practice grounded in these.
