Pastoral Care

 

The aim of pastoral care work is to provide emotional and practical support to children who might be struggling with difficulties either at home or at school.

This could include difficulties at home, friendship issues, problems with anger or any issue that causes your child to feel unhappy in school or at home.

Our Work involves:

  • Providing one to one support to children
  • Working with groups of children on issues such as self-esteem, friendship, behaviour or social skills
  • Working with teachers in ensuring good support in class
  • Supporting parents with family difficulties through meetings in school and signposting to support in the local community.

 

How It Works

Any child in the school can speak to Mrs Leppard if they have a problem or worry at school or at home. They can do this by asking their teacher or approaching Mrs Leppard in school. There is a box outside Mrs Leppards room that children can put their name into if they want to talk about anything.

Parents or teachers can come to talk if they have a concern about a child.   You can arrange a time by calling in to the school office.
