What support will there be for my child’s overall well-being?
-
The well-being of all of our pupils is our primary concern at Victoria Primary School. They are supported with their social and emotional development throughout the school day, through the curriculum and extra-curricular activities. Personal, Social and Health Education (PSHE) are integral to our curriculum and ethos of the school.
-
We have staff who have first aid at work and paediatric first aid training.
-
If a pupil has a medical need, then a detailed Care Plan is compiled with support from the child's GP, or other relevant medical professional, in consultation with parents / carers. These are discussed with all staff who are involved with the pupil.
-
Additional support from specialist staff is arranged as needed for individual pupils, both in and out of the classroom; and a tailored personal plan may be put in place for pupils with the highest need.
-
Our Behaviour Policy; which includes guidance on expectations, rewards and sanctions is fully understood and implemented by all staff.
-
We regularly monitor attendance, support pupils returning to school after absence and take the necessary actions to prevent prolonged unauthorised absence.
-
Relevant staff are trained to support medical needs and in some cases all staff receive training. We have an Administration of Medicines, Intimate Care and Allergies and Anaphylaxis Policies in place.
-
Pupils’ views are sought through the Junior Leadership Team and other forums.
