Student Mental Health and Wellbeing

At Napier Primary Academy we provide a whole range of tailored support to cater for our children and their needs to ensure equality of provision throughout the school and inclusive practice is maintained for everyone.

This includes SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) support, pastoral support, and our ACE (A Champion for Every Child) programme. This means whatever life throws at you, and your children, we will do all we can to ensure your child receives the support they need to stay mentally and emotionally healthy. 

Meet our Pastoral team:

• Mrs Hallows - Pastoral Manager, Designated Safeguarding Lead and ACE Lead (Please see ACE page for more information)
• Miss Beaney - PE and Mental Health Lead and Year 3 ACE Tutor
• Miss Wellard - SENCO
• Mrs Bragger - Inclusion Officer
• Miss Finn - School Counsellor
• Mrs Pearce - Years 4, 5 and 6 ACE Tutor
• Miss Wood - Years 1 and 2 ACE Tutor

How you can access additional support

A member of staff may contact you if we believe your child may benefit from additional support. 

If you, as a parent or carer, have a concern you would like to discuss there are a number of ways to initiate the conversation:

• Talk to a familiar face on the playground in the mornings or afternoons
• Arrange a meeting with the class teacher
• Telephone the school and arrange to come in for a more personal meeting with a school leader such as the Headteacher or Deputy Head Teacher, Inclusion Leader or Pastoral Leader.

Please speak to a member of our team if your child is feeling anxious, worried, suffering from a bereavement, or home issues.
