Parent Support Advisor

Hello my name is Juliann Nisbet, I am the Parent Support Advisor at Reddal Hill Primary School. My role in school is to help support parents by offering advice and guidance on any issues you may have, such as concerns around behaviour, attendance, finances etc. I can signpost you to any specialist services or agencies you may need to access and provide information about services in the local area. I can support you with any contact you may have with other professionals or agencies. I am aware that the effects of the pandemic and subsequent lockdowns have had a huge impact on our community and families, there may be a number of issues our parents need support with or it could just be that you need a listening ear and someone to talk about your worries with.

 

As a Mum myself I understand how difficult parenting can sometimes be and how at times we need that little bit of extra support so please do come and speak to me if you need any advice or support. I am in school every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. You will find me either on the gate or on the playground each day before and after school. You can also contact me through the school office or by phone on 01384 569 053.                                           

Sandwell have developed a new magazine called Being A Parent, this is packed full of information for parents of newborns right up to secondary age pupils. It contains useful information about free activities and courses you can take part in programs for parents and has a list of useful contacts. Please use the link below to have a look or see me in school for a paper copy.  

On Tuesday 28th January PC Jo Dakin from West Midlands Police is coming into school to deliver community safety sessions to our Year 6 pupils. The sessions will be delivered in small groups via a virtual reality headset and the children will experience a scenario where they can make decisions based in a safe environment. There will then be a discussion at the end of the session around choices the pupils have made. Please see link to letter from PC Dakin.
