Here at Woodfield School we recognise that safeguarding our students and supporting our families is a school-wide approach and requires all aspects of the school community to work together. This belief is reflected in our culture, practice and management as we all strive to ensure that we are fully inclusive and provide world-class support to the families we serve.

Safeguarding
How does Woodfield support its families and children?
Stoneleigh Road - Primary
Woodlands - KS3 Bridge
Hawthorn Lane - KS4
We recognise that our school being across 3 sites can get pretty confusing! Therefore we have a dedicated pastoral team who support across all individual sites, so you’re never far away if you have a question or need support. If you have a question or would like one of our team to get in touch you can email: pastoral@woodfield.coventry.sch.uk
You can also find out more about them on the ‘Meet the Team!’ page.
Early Help at Woodfield
Early Help is a term used to describe a range of services which aim to work with children, young people and families who are experiencing difficulties. There are many different services, organisations and groups which offer ‘early help’ which aim to help tackle problems for children, young people and their families.
Early help services are part of a package of support which enables practitioners to respond to the different levels of need children and families may experience and are in place to support you, your family and your children in a variety of cases. Woodfield School supports our families through this Early Help process.
Early Help can support with the following:
-
Family Support for short-term parenting and behaviour support
-
Young people and children aged 8 years and over can access mental health and wellbeing support through Psychological Wellbeing Practitioners
-
Group support including support for managing anger in children and young people and how we best support them
-
Special Educational Needs and Disabilities, keeping safe and feeling safe
-
Family hub centres offer a range of services to families of children aged 0 – 5 years including parenting groups, speech and language, baby massage etc. They focus on vulnerable families, with the main provision being the 0 – 2 year pathway which supports families from pregnancy to their 2 year old checks
Woodfield School is proud to work in collaboration with the Coventry Safeguarding Children Partnership (CSCP).
