If I may, just on that, Chair, clearly, the overwhelming majority of children are in schools and they're entitled to our reforms. And so I think it's a question of making sure that we continue with our reform agenda. However, just to reiterate the point I…

It's a really high priority for us. We are bringing in a range of reforms into place in schools and across our education system. Of course, we passed the Bill yesterday at Stage 4, so there's a whole set of other reforms coming as a consequence of that, and…

It's an issue across Wales. It's definitely a pattern that exists elsewhere as well, and if you look at the headline date, the description that you've given of the gap is a fair reflection. In the work that I've been doing, the statement I gave in March, and…

Actually, we do a lot of recrunching of the data in response to queries that we get as a Government. Officials are in a pretty constant process, I think, of re-evaluating and analysing data, and so if you're getting requests from other witnesses to do that in…

On the suggestion, if there is evidence of that, I'd be interested in seeing it, but it's perhaps speculative otherwise. But I'd be very interested in seeing evidence of that if you're receiving that evidence from other witnesses. I think that, for pupils who…

It's extremely high, Ken, on the list of our priorities, and Lynne Neagle and I—. My next meeting, in fact, after this committee appearance is with Lynne to discuss some of our shared priorities for the joint forum that we chair with partners across the…

Well, I think ,on the additional activities, we're obviously evaluating those at the moment and listening to the voices of learners and parents. Anecdotally, it's been, actually, immensely popular amongst learners and parents. I haven't yet persuaded all my…

Well, I think you've heard evidence from others about how important it is to start the analysis from the experience of the learner in this, and so there'll obviously be a range of reasons why individual learners are feeling reluctant to come to school, and…

Just to say as a caveat at the start, I don't think we should, and I know we are not making an assumption that—. Disadvantaged learners have a range of opportunities in school to follow the best course for them and there is a range of pupils who will be drawn…

Well, I think the broader context of this is that we are probably all, certainly speaking personally—. I'm sure that many of us will have felt a little bit of a sense of dislocation and being out of kilter at least at some points over the last two years, and…

Well, I think—. I saw the evidence of some other witnesses who I think were talking about this perhaps in an anecdotal way, if you like. We don't have the data for it, but it may the case that it is long COVID. If you look at the absence data for the last…

Sure, yes. I'm not sure I've seen hard evidence that makes the direct link between pressure for counselling services and absence, but I'm certain that, in the way that I've just responded in the first question, there's a link between absence and broader…

I'm not sure I have the detail on that, Ken. I don't know if, Sian, you can help with that?

Well, I certainly agree, and I've read the evidence and it chimes very much with work that we've been doing in the Government that mental health issues can be a significant contributor to pupil absence, but I think that's the whole range of mental health and…
