Department for Education

Proceeding contribution from Layla Moran (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 6 July 2022. It occurred during Estimates day on Department for Education.

I, too, extend my congratulations to the right hon. Lady. When I asked my county council what was the single most important thing we could do to help the SEND backlog, it gave me one thing to relay to this Government: we should increase the number of educational psychologists. I hear her passion, so will she put that on her to-do list urgently and increase their number, not just to the 200 more that we have now, because that is not enough? We need to supercharge the number of educational psychologists available across the country, to help tackle that SEND backlog.
