Help and support for families

Physical wellbeing

The Eden Academy Trust provides physiotherapy and occupational therapy for pupils who have the requirement listed in the EHCP statement. If additional needs are identified in a child the school team will assess these needs and will ensure that the required provision is given.

During the constantly changing COVID-19 situation we aim to continue to support our pupils in the best possible way. This might be through direct contact in school or indirect through teachers and assistants or remote via ZOOM sessions.

On this parents forum we would like to share some ideas with you that might help you and your child.

In case you have any questions you can always contact us through the schools’ team.

Family Services

Our jointly-run family services give parents, carers, siblings and other family members the chance to get together, support each other and have fun. Our aim is to offer extended social opportunities for our children and to provide support groups for our families.

Emotional wellbeing

Communication

ideas to help you develop your child's communication using your routine daily activities. We also hope this will help you identify things you do already, and realise you are building communication skills in the process.
