Additional support for families and children

 

As well as our in-school team, a range of additional support is available for children and their families. Some require a GP referral, some a school referral and some are self referral. Please ask if you feel your child or family would benefit from any of these.

  • Family support
  • Children's and adult counselling service
  • Farnley and Armley Children's Centres
  • 2 year old nursery places
  • Parenting support advice and courses

 

Other support available which school can help you access includes:

 

  • Youth Inclusion Project (1:1 and group work for 8 to 13 year olds at risk of anti-social behaviour or crime)
  • Counselling and psychotherapy
  • Leeds Domestic Violence Service for both men and women suffering domestic violence or abuse

Reporting abuse in educational settings.

 

The Department for Education has commissioned the NSPCC to establish a dedicated independent helpline for people who have experienced sexual abuse in educational setting. 

 

The helpline went live on 1 April, and will provide both children and adults who have experienced sexual abuse in schools with support and advice, including onward action such as contacting the police if they wish to. The helpline will also provide support to parents and professionals. Anyone who gets in touch through this dedicated helpline will also be signposted to other relevant support services available, including Childline, which provides ongoing support and counselling to children and young people.

 

The dedicated and confidential NSPCC helpline – Report Abuse in Education can be reached on 0800 136 663 or by email at help@nspcc.org.uk.
