Early Help
Early Help Offer
As a school, we pride ourselves in our relationships with families and aim to support parents/carers and their children the best we can. Early intervention is crucial and with school and home working together effectively, we can help to reduce/eliminate any barriers that might be impacting negatively on our families lives.
What is Early Help?
Early Help means providing help for children and their families as soon as any problems may arise especially when they may have a negative impact on a child. A family may have difficulties at any time in their lives for many different reasons.
Our Early Help Offer brings together a range of services to support our children and families.
Universal support:
-health services such as GP, midwifery, health services, school nursing
-Nurseries/playgroups
-Schools/colleges
-Children's centres
-Community, sport, leisure facilities
-Housing
-Play and youth services
When universal services aren't meeting those additional needs, we can look at accessing targeted services.
Targeted services can provide additional capacity and expertise to address additional needs.
