Pastoral Support
Life can be confusing and troubling at times for children, as well as parents and extended family. This in turn can affect how children learn and behave in school. Sometimes it helps to have someone you can trust to talk to, someone who will support and listen to you and help you to work things out. That's what we hope we can offer the pupils and families who attend Little Dewchurch Primary School, as well as lots of fun, laughter and play!
We strive to find ways to engage all our pupils, building trust and better communication between school and familes. We hope you will find us friendly and approachable so that if you are worried about your child or a difficult situation in your family you can contact us for support.
If you have any questions we would be happy to meet you at school or ring on 01432 840645.
We are lucky to have the support of Mrs Luisa Lee-Smith who is with us once a week to also help with ay queries. Mrs Jones is our support on the ground working with the children.
