Schools and kura could have an important role to play in preventing youth suicide.  

Coroner Tania Tetitaha's inquiry into the self-inflicted deaths of six young people finds they were effectively lost in a fragmented system.  

Children's Commissioner Claire Achmad says we need to make sure getting help is as easy as possible at the earliest stages of distress.  

She told Heather du Plessis-Allan school-based services like counselling and social workers provide a lot of benefits.

Achmad says their presence makes them more accessible and more trusted by children and young people.
