The Problem
Schools are increasingly viewed as community hubs to support the education, health and wellbeing of children and young people. They also have the role of being excellent employers, helping staff to manage the day to day demands of school leadership and teaching. The demands are vast and increasing daily for providing universal provision.
Schools also have a duty to provide additional support for children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). SENCOs and Inclusion Managers often call on Educational Psychologists (EPs) to help them respond to children’s learning and wellbeing needs. They require EPs to provide robust consultations, thorough assessments and practical, realistic recommendations to help them to do their jobs well. The quality of this input is paramount to help them to help the children and young people they serve.
Some schools tell us that they have found it difficult to find a quality Educational Psychologist service that will take the time to prioritise the needs of their specific community, support the children, parents and families and staff.
What We Do
Inner Circles Educational Psychologists work at three waves: Universal/whole school (wave 1), Targeted/with small groups (wave 2) and Specialist/with individual children/ young people (wave 3).
At all waves, Inner Circles EPs can help you to think through ‘problem situations’ and generate a clear and comprehensive action plan to improve the situation.
At Wave 3, this plan may include actions by a learner themselves, parents/carers, school/college staff and the EP (through assessment and information gathering).
Our assessments are thorough and comprehensive, keeping the whole child and their context in mind. We make evidence-informed recommendations, based on the best hopes for the child/young person. These are identified through our consultation process, which always involves parents and school.
We also hold staff in mind, providing compassion-focused individual and group supervision. These reflective thinking spaces can provide a much-needed confidential forum for staff to address pragmatically how to move forward with a situation in their work life, but also be honest about the impact on them as a human being.
Past Examples
Inner Circles has independently served schools and colleges in London and surrounding areas since 2011.
Assessment
Work with and around a learner, where information is collated about the individual and analysed. This could be through the use of a standardised tool and/or observation. Assessments can be for exam access arrangements, as requested by schools and colleges, to qualify learners for additional time in their exams.
Intervention
Developing and running evidence-informed individual or group interventions for learners, e.g. social skills groups; solution-focused motivational work.
Where a more flexible ongoing support approach is required, use of individual coaching or group Staff Sharing is offered over an agreed length of time. These approaches are particularly useful for supporting staff in working with learners who present with challenging behaviour or complex needs.
Training (INSET)
Working with staff or parents to raise awareness and develop skills in working effectively with children and young people, including those with particular additional needs such as Autistic Spectrum Conditions, ADHD, behavioural emotional and social difficulties and dyslexia.
Some schools tell us that they have found it difficult to find a quality Educational Psychologist service that will take the time to prioritise the needs of their specific community, support the children, parents and families and staff.
