I am available to take phone calls and meetings on Thursdays. You can phone me on 01604 890380, which will take you through to the Office and they can transfer the call to me. any time. If I am not available, I will always get back to you as soon as I can. I can arrange to see you privately if you wish, or just stop to chat to me in the morning.
If you have wellbeing concerns about your child, please fill in the following form to help us to prioritise the needs of our children:
Pastoral Support Parental Request Form
We have a tiered approach to organising the Pastoral Support needed.
Pastoral Support – When a child needs support, we offer a tiered approach that is personalised to the individual needs of the child and is regularly assessed based on the progress. Depending on the success of the intervention, it may either be withdrawn or extended. The tiers are as follows
Tier 1 – In class support strategies offered with weekly check ins from the class teaching team.
Tier 2 – Group support intervention based on need.
Tier 3 – 1:1 sessions regularly to reinforce positive behaviours and strategies and work on individual needs alongside parental support.
Tier 4 – Referrals made with the appropriate agencies and Early Help Assessment opened.
Furthermore I am here to not only support pupils but families as well, please see below for some useful information surrounding any difficulties you may be experiencing at home. Or if you would like any further support please feel free to contact me.
