Parent Support Advisor

Mandy Morris

Hello, I'm your Parent Support Advisor, Mandy Morris and can provide support on all parenting and school issues. I'm able to give advice on many issues and I also have a role in pupil attendance.  Below is a list of things I can help you with, but this list is not exhaustive.  If you require advice on any issue related to school and/or your family please do not hesitate to arrange an appointment.

I am available in the Infant building in Reception. My contact number is: 01933 359269. I can see you in school or visit you at home.

I can:

  • Provide a listening ear to parents/carers in a non judgmental way.
  • Refer to other agencies like School Nurse, Wellbeing & Mental Health support, Debt Agencies, Domestic Violence support, Sleep Right and many others.
  • Signpost to food banks
  • Signpost to various organisations such as church groups, mum and tots, children's centres.  I can accompany you for the first time.
  • Provide information on behaviour strategies.
  • Give information on family routines.
  • Refer to different Parenting Programmes.
  • Lead and organise EHA (Early Help Assessment) meetings liaising with other professionals.
  • Offer some sort of support when it seems no-one else can!

There is always help whatever situation you may find yourself in!
