At Windwhistle Primary School, we understand just how complicated family life can be. From time to time there may be situations where you need extra help and support. We have what we call an offer of Early Help. This means getting access to the right help and support when you need it, for as long as you need it, and is available for all our children and Families. 

This includes support with the following;

• Housing Support
• Holiday Clubs
• Entitlement to Benefits or Grant Applications
• Foodbank Vouchers
• Providing with School Uniform
• Adult Mental Health Signposting
• Managing your Child’s Behaviour
• Domestic Abuse or Breakdown in Parental Relationships
• Signposting for Alcohol or Substance Misuse

If we are unable to provide support in School, we will always look for an agency who can. We work closely with other agencies to identify who may be best placed to support all our Families individual circumstances, so please speak to a member of the Pastoral Team if you have any worries. 

There are many ways in which we can help!

"We may have all come on different ships, but we're in the same boat now" - Martin Luther King Jnr
