Walton is a family, and we have a very dedicated and highly-skilled Wellbeing Team who are here to support parents as well as children.
Our Wellbeing Team has expertise in a wide range of areas. We strongly believe that children learn best when they are happy, settled and have good attendance, and we strive to ensure that every child has the opportunity to thrive. We know that this works best when parents are supported too, and we support families with a wide range of issues. We can support with almost anything that you can think of, whether that be help completing a form, a cup of tea and an ear to listen, signposting to external support or help sorting bus routes. This doesn’t stop at 3:20pm, and if you need to speak to someone, no matter how big or small the issue may seem, please do!
More Information
See below for more information on how we can support you as parents:
Open Door
Our door is always open. If you’re worried, overwhelmed or simply need someone to talk to, please come and speak to us. We will always make time to listen without judgement.
SEND Support
If you have SEND, or your child does and you need support and guidance for home, please contact Mrs Jopling by phoning school.
Parent Events
You don’t need to be experiencing a problem to join us. Our parent events are about bringing our school community together, building connections and making sure families know they are never alone.
It’s OK To Not Be OK
Parenting can be difficult, and everyone faces their own barriers and hurdles to overcome. What is important is that we face these hurdles together, as ultimately this supports the children of our school. If you ever feel like you need to speak to someone or are struggling with mental health, please just call in to see us – a problem shared is a problem halved!
