Supporting Your Child's Wellbeing: Where to Turn for Help
If you’re concerned about your child’s wellbeing, there are several steps you can take and services available to support you.
Start with Your GP
Your GP is a helpful first point of contact for medical support and guidance. They can provide advice and signpost you to appropriate local services.
Talk to Your Child’s Class Teacher
We encourage open communication—please speak with your child’s class teacher if you have any concerns or feel your child needs additional support. They know your child well and can work with you to understand their needs in school.
Need More Support?
If your concerns continue or you feel specialist advice is needed, please arrange a meeting with our Headteacher, who can make referrals to the Emotional Health and Wellbeing Service.
