SEND

Educational Psychology

As one of the largest Educational Psychology Services in the North of England, we collaborate with schools, families and local authorities to identify barriers to learning and develop evidence based support, ensuring every child can thrive in an inclusive environment.


Our Educational Psychologists (EPs) use their knowledge of child development, psychological theory and research, combined with experience to understand and enhance the learning and emotional well-being of children and young people.

Children and Young People

Children and Young People

We predominantly support children and young people who experience special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) in the following categories, as outlined in the SEND Code of Practice:

  • Social, emotional and mental health
  • Communication and interaction
  • Cognition and learning
  • Sensory and physical

 

Our educational psychologists also support children and young people who experience other vulnerabilities who may also have SEND. These include children and young people:

  • At risk from school exclusion
  • In the care and/or youth justice system
  • Who are very anxious about being in school which impacts on their attendance
  • Exploring and understanding their identity (e.g. gender, ethnicity, orientation)
  • At risk of not being in education or employment

Staff and Professionals

Working alongside and supporting school staff is a core part of our role. It is very important to us that schools can come to us for support and help. Advising senior leadership teams, special needs coordinators and teaching staff is vital in terms of understanding pupil needs and how they can be supported.
