Pastoral Support
Mrs H Jones
Assistant Head of School
Miss J Faulkner
Care, Support and Guidance Manager
At Rushall we aim to provide as much as support as we possibly can to our children and their families. We believe that feeling happy and safe both at school and at home is absolutely crucial in order for children to thrive. All of our staff play an important part in the care of our children and families and our pastoral team are always here to help with anything that they can.
Support will be given to children who are struggling with their emotions or having difficulties for any reason so please do let us know if you think your child requires any help.
We recognise that parenting is very tough especially for single parents or families with no extended family close by for support. We are here for you too so please do get in touch if there is anything that you are struggling with and we will do our best to help you or if we cannot, put you in touch with someone that can.
Our pastoral support team can help with:
- Parenting problems
- Support with behaviour at home
- Advice about eating, sleeping, toileting
- Support with attendance
- Financial difficulties
- Debt management
- Access to good quality school uniform
- Access to food vouchers
- Housing difficulties
- Drug and alcohol support
- Bereavement support
- Support during/ after family separation or illness
- Support for parents of children with special educational needs and disabilities
School is for parents too so please don't struggle alone. Even if you just need a chat and a cup of tea, we are here!
