Support for Emotional & Social Development

At Edmondsley, we are committed to ensuring that children have a high level of support for their personal and social development. The thoughts and feelings of the children in our school are of paramount importance to us. We take the time and opportunity to listen to children and parents about any additional support that they may need. When it is felt that additional support or intervention is necessary to support a child’s social or emotional development then we can offer:

  • a school with caring and dedicated staff;
  • a curriculum and school ethos that has children’s social and emotional well-being at the heart of it;
  • the use of the school promise rewards to develop children’s resilience and independence;
  • staff trained in ‘connecting with children’ and timetabled sessions for support;
  • staff trained to deliver ‘Relax Kids’ therapeutic intervention;
  • getting along/ friendship interventions;
  • access to Emotional Wellbeing team for high levels of need;
  • close liaison with external services where referrals for specialist advice can be made;
  • the opportunity for children to select a member of staff as a key person to go to as and when necessary;
  • assembly themes that focus on social and emotional well-being of all, including visiting speakers and production companies to cover themes such as anti-bullying;
  • access to Piece of Mind (MHST);
  • participating in national events such as anti – bullying week and follow up activities to ensure that we have an anti-bullying culture in school; and
  • a behaviour system which embraces a restorative approach and a reward system that encourages children to be kind, caring and considerate to others.
