Welsh Government
The Welsh Government is developing a new national mental health strategy and we want to hear your views on what this should look like. We have developed a questionnaire that asks specific questions and your answers to these will help us develop the strategy.

Born in Wales
Have your SAY on family health and well-being that affects our children’s future.
We would like to ask mothers and partners to complete the Born in Wales Surveys to help to improve understanding of how to best support families into the future.
Three surveys:
- For expectant parents
- For parents of children aged 18 months to 2 and a half years.
- For parents of nursery-aged children in Wales.
Please click below for more information and access to our surveys.
Welsh Parliament
The Children, Young People and Education Committee has agreed monitor the implementation of two key education reforms as they are being rolled out throughout the sixth Senedd:
-
The Curriculum and Assessment (Wales) Act 2021
-
The Additional Learning Needs and Education Tribunal (Wales) Act 2018
The consultation responses will help to steer the Committee on what it wants to focus on before each planned check-in.
Anyone with an interest in either the new curriculum or the ALN reforms – such as educators, stakeholders, pupils or parents - can submit their views on any element of the rollout of the education reforms at any point on their implementation journeys.
You are welcome to submit as many responses as you want, as regularly as you want. They will all feed into the Committee’s decisions about how to focus its scrutiny. It’s important to the Committee that the voices of stakeholders and members of the public feed into this body of work.
Submitting your views: We would like you to submit your views by completing the proforma.
The closing date for submissions is at the end of the Sixth Senedd (in 2026).
Please email your completed proforma to SeneddChildren@senedd.wales
We are keen to hear from as many people as possible. If you would like to submit your views but do not want/are not able to complete this proforma, please call the Committee’s clerks, who can arrange with you a different way for your voice to be heard
