Promote emotional literacy and resilience through consistent routines, encouragement, and positive reinforcement.
Work collaboratively with class teachers, the SENDCo, therapists, and pastoral staff to ensure each pupil receives the right support.
Champion safeguarding and wellbeing, always putting the needs and safety of pupils first.
