Specialist Advisory Support

Delivering interventions and supporting staff to effectively implement strategies and approaches to meet identified outcomes. Specialist teacher-type support provided by our Assistant Psychologists.

Provided by our Assistant Psychologists

Our Assistant Psychologists can deliver a variety of support packages, creatively tailored to your setting and children’s needs, which can fulfil requirements for regular specialist teacher involvement. Packages vary, but may involve initial observation, assessment (where necessary) to identify key areas of need, and development of personalised support plans or the delivery of social skills and emotional literacy programmes of small group work. Where assessment and advice has already been received, our Assistant Psychologists can work collaboratively with staff to support their understanding of the child(ren)’s needs, and how to effectively implement support strategies and deliver interventions independently in the future.

Ongoing Visits

Ongoing visits may focus on modelling and coaching, or co-delivery of intervention packages. Our aim is always to increase capacity to meet the variety and complexity of need in schools and we are committed to ethical and effective practice. Our delivery of support packages involve your staff in various ways, from ensuring key staff are aware of intervention content and goals so they can scaffold and reinforce children’s behavioural change, through to co-delivery of interventions, developing staff whilst meeting children’s needs.
