The ADR Wales Mental Health research programme will focus on the matters of anxiety, depression and suicide and self-harm prevention.

This innovative programme will continue to work with education partners in Wales to better understand the barriers individuals face in finding meaningful work and accessing the skills and training needed to compete. The programme will address questions of low skills levels in Wales, and the progression from education and training to meaningful jobs against a backdrop of Brexit and the pandemic.

The ADR Wales Education research programme has been developed in line with the Welsh Government’s ambition to deliver a long-term programme of education reform and ensure educational inequalities narrow and standards rise. This is furthered by the commitment that no pupil is ‘left behind’ after the Covid-19 pandemic.
Combining expertise from backgrounds in early years, child health, mental health and education to name just a few, the ADR Wales Early Years research team brings together this knowledge to deliver well-rounded policy-informing research. This is needed to help all children - particularly those from deprived backgrounds.
