Family Liaison
Family Liaison Mentor
At Farndon, we value the importance of building positive relationships with Parents and Families within our School community. Also, Mrs Hughes, a Teaching Assistant within School, is our Family Liaison Mentor. Mrs Hughes is available to speak with families in a morning, or if you would like to speak with her directly, then contact the School Office.
Mrs Hughes
I am here to support you as parents and children at this fantastic school in a range of different ways. You can contact me through the school office or should you see me on the school playground, then please do approach me personally.
Sometimes the stresses of everyday life can be quite over-whelming. If you need to talk these through, or need support please feel free to talk to me. You may need help with social and emotional wellbeing, including friendship issues, grief & loss, parental separation, parenting, Free School Meal application, absence and lateness, behaviour, etc.
Part of my role is to work closely with all staff, outside agencies and other organisations to improve opportunities for our children and their families, and to sign post you accordingly. You would be supported as much as possible during this process.
My main duties are to provide a link between families and school.
-
To keep parents and carers informed about services available, helping them to access support and opportunities.
-
To work with the wider school community in the best interests of the child.
-
To help, support and advise families in order to enable their children to thrive socially, emotionally and educationally.
-
To work closely with the Children's Centre.
