Family Support and Well - Being
Hello, my name is Suzanne King. I am pleased to introduce myself as your School Family Support Worker. I am a parent myself, which may help to see things from the parent's point of view. I have worked supporting Children and Families in related roles for a number of years and hold a recognised qualification.
My role is to provide advice, support and information to the Parents and families in our School. Support for Pupils and families includes:
- I can be a listening ear
- sign post you to services and work alongside other agencies
- Support to complete forms and paper work
- Liaising with local services such as housing and social care
- Support to attend and plan for meetings
- Referrals to local food banks and for financial assistance
- Providing students with 1:1 support around feelings and emotions
For families who require additional support, there is Team around The Family (TAF), which is a consent based process, working with myself and multiple agencies to provide the best support possible.
I can meet with you in school or at home and an appointment can be made through reception or you can email me directly [email protected] I am usually based at Antrobus St Mark’s School on a Monday and Great Budworth School on a Wednesday (9am – 12.30pm).
