Charlotte Adjepong

Counsellor

Responsibilities

Our counsellors help our pupils to discuss their problems, thoughts and feelings in a confidential setting, and offer them strategies to help improve their emotional wellbeing and mental health.  With our younger children, this can be done through play as well as through talking and listening. Our counsellors have a variety of resources and a wealth of experience that enables them to work with our children from reception to year 11.

Our academies have systems in place to identify and support pupils who may benefit from emotional health and wellbeing support.  As well as the counsellors, our academies have teams including pastoral staff, SEND staff, safeguarding staff, attendance officers and family liaison officers, all of whom can offer different skills and experience alongside that of teaching staff, to help your child at school.
