Question
To ask the Scottish Government how many pupils, on average, each educational psychologist has supported in each year since 2010.
Answer
This information is not held centrally. Educational psychologists are employed directly by education authorities; it is for authorities to take decisions around the numbers they need and employ, and how they fulfil their duty to provide an educational psychology service.
