How can our school psychology services be commissioned?

Our comprehensive school services can be commissioned through a service level agreement. School commissioned services grants the freedom to decide how our psychological input is used.

How can we help with a whole school approach?

Our clinical, counselling, educational and child psychologists help on many levels when it comes to taking a whole school approach. The input received is dependent on the input required. Special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) are a whole school responsibility: a strong systemic approach increases attainment and understanding through sustainable and long lasting changes. We take a proactive approach, which allows us to support the implementation of procedures to reduce the impact of additional needs within schools.

Mental health and emotional wellbeing

Keeping up to date and implementing new government policies and guidelines can seem like a never ending task, but we are here to help. The most recent government legislation focussing on mental health and wellbeing within schools is extremely important to integrate as soon as possible. Through making approaches such as mindfulness, talking therapies and an increased awareness of mental health difficulties an integral part of a whole school approach, student and staff wellbeing increases. Now is the time to act to be the example to other schools struggling to achieve this delicate balance. The majority of behavioural problems are caused by an underlying social, emotional or mental health (SEMH) difficulty. Through addressing SEMH directly challenging behaviour, long term absences and poor results will reduce. Mental health and wellbeing affects all members of a school, which is why we take a proactive approach to our work.

Staff retention

Staff retention is at an all time low within schools and together we combat some of the underlying reasons. Our whole school approaches share the responsibility of students with SEND and empower teachers to respond to the complex needs present in classrooms. Our supportive service is there for staff and students. Raising attainment and improving data helps to ease the pressure felt by demanding targets.

How can we help with a targeted approach?

A targeted approach is an effective method of reaching groups of multiple students. Focussed group work benefits students on an academic, social and emotional level, assisting them in reaching their true potential.

Our team use screening tools to identify students who would benefit from a targeted approach. Early identification and intervention improves results through addressing and responding to needs.

Targeted parent groups and workshops are a cost-effective way to share information with parents to equip them with the skills and techniques needed to support home learning. Achievement increases when there is a consistent approach between home and school learning, making attainment a shared responsibility.

Our clinical, educational and child psychologists can be funded by each funding element according to your needs.



Catch-up premium

Secondary schools can use pupil catch-up premium for literacy and numeracy interventions, groups or training.

Pupil premium is available to raise the attainment of disadvantaged pupils to close learning gaps between them and their peers. Our specialist team can raise attainment through an individual, targeted and whole school level in order to make pupil premium funding stretch without compromising on the quality of service.
