Support for Families

Sometimes families need a little extra support. Our schools work closely with parents and carers to make sure families can access the help they need. If you are unsure who to speak to, our Community Outreach team can help guide you to the right support. The team works with families across our schools to offer advice, courses and practical help that support family life and children’s learning. Parents can speak to them informally in the playground or contact them directly if they would like advice or support.

Community Outreach Team

If you would like advice or support, our Community Outreach team is available to help.

Email: [email protected]

The team works with families across our schools and can help guide parents to the right support, both within the school and in the wider community.

Free school meals

Families who receive certain benefits may be eligible for free school meals.

If you think you may qualify, please contact your school office for advice on how to apply through Enfield Council.

Free school meals can also help the school receive additional funding to support your child’s learning.

Safeguarding support

Our safeguarding team is available to support children and families.

If you have concerns about the safety or wellbeing of a child, please contact the safeguarding lead.
