Early Help for families
At Newton Primary School, we are commited to supporting all of our families. The school has an appointed Pastoral Manager, Mrs Sanderson, who is employed to provide children and parents with pastoral support. Mrs Sanderson is able to support with the following:
- Issues surrounding attendance
- Support with TAF (Team around the family) meetings. These are voluntary meetings led by school and involve support families with multi agencies.
- Support parents/carers with behaviour at home.
- Provide pupils in school with 1:1 and group pastoral interventions.
- Provide tailored support for pupils with Special Educational Needs.
- Plan and deliver active provision at lunchtime for all pupils across the school.
Mrs Sanderson works in school four afternoons per week Monday to Thursday during term time.
