FAMILY SUPPORT
There are a number of reasons why extra help is sometimes needed. Getting the right information, advice and support at the right time can help.
If you're worried about your child’s health or development please make an appointment to see your child’s class teacher, our Family Support Worker (Mrs Barratt), our Senior First Aider (Mrs Key) or a senior member of staff. Alternatively, you can speak to your health visitor or doctor.

Mrs Barratt is our school Family Support Worker.
