Parents, carers and families are the most important influence on outcomes for children and young people. The Every Child Matters: Change for Children programme aims to ensure that support for parents becomes routine, particularly at key points in a child or young person's life.

 

As the Extended Service Coordinators we are working to make sure parents and families have access to the support that they need, when they need it!

 

To develop support for all Parents within the Family, we will provide relevant information and advice through providing links and telephone help-lines to useful services available to parents. Also look at our Extended Service Notice boards within your school for other links and services for Parental Support.
