A school based drop-in with a member of the School Health Team where parents and children can ask emotional, relationship and health questions.

In secondary, state maintained or academy schools, in the borough we deliver a weekly student drop-in. These offer confidential support to students with emotional, physical, relationship and sexual health questions. We can offer on-going support and / or referral on where assessed as required.
Whilst we actively encourage young people to share concerns and worries they have with other significant adults in their lives, this is a confidential service. If the safety of the young person is of concern we will, with the young person's knowledge, share relevant information with those who need to know.
In primary, state maintained or academy schools, we deliver drop-ins across the academic terms to reception, year 3 and year 6 parents. In year 6 we also deliver a drop-in for students. All of these offer confidential support and signposting for families covering emotional and physical health needs and in year 6 support the needs of children as they transition into secondary school.
Where can I access the service?
Contact your school to find out more information about the drop-in at your school.
You can also contact the school health team for information and advice via text on 07507207365. The textline is monitored Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm, but you can text any time. Please note however we can only respond during our monitoring hours.
