Pastoral Support
Life as a parent or carer is not always easy. We understand that sometimes you may need some help, guidance or even just a sympathetic ear to really listen.
My role in school is to not only be here for our children but also the families, supporting you with any concerns or worries both inside and outside of school.
I won’t always have all the answers, but we can work together to find them.
I am available by phone and email. I will be holding regular drop in cafés every Monday and Wednesday at 2.45pm in the Breakfast Club room (near buggy park)- No appointment necessary.
There is also bookable appointments available by emailing the office
