Debate between David Johnston and Sarah Green

Monday 23rd October 2023 Commons Chamber

[The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Education (David Johnston)]

My hon. Friend is absolutely right about the importance of educational psychologists. We are investing £21 million to train 400 more educational psychologists, building on the £10 million already announced to train more than 200 from this term.
