At Boothferry we pride ourselves on supporting families. We support, signpost and listen to families when they are in need.
Sarah works with the Headteacher Mr Sibley on child protection issues and concerns.
Sarah is happy to meet with any parents, who may have concerns about their child, to listen and support where appropriate. Offering support in school, and making referrals to other agencies as needed.
Sarah is out at the front of school, at the start and end of each school day, please stop her and say hello and, if you need any support, please mention you would like to see her and that can be arranged.
