School Psychologists
Our school has had a school psychology department since 2008. Currently, five part-time psychologists share the workload for the entire school community.
The school psychology service is a frontline service, easily accessible within the school. It helps to assess situations, clarify the issues involved and suggest initial courses of action or referrals where necessary. Its role is to ‘unravel’ situations in order to identify the pupil’s needs and mobilise the most appropriate resources. However, it is not a substitute for psycho-therapeutic treatment. The support provided within the school setting is time-limited and focused on needs related to the school context; when therapeutic support is indicated, the school psychologist refers the pupil and their family to the appropriate specialist services.
The school psychologist plays a vital role in pupils’ overall development, covering academic, social, emotional and behavioural aspects.
- They assess learning difficulties and identify special educational needs in order to provide appropriate support
- They offer psychological support to pupils experiencing stress, anxiety or personal difficulties
- In collaboration with teachers, parents and other school professionals, they draw up individualised intervention plans and monitor their progress.
- The school psychologist also helps to promote mental health, prevent behavioural problems and intervene in crisis situations. Our team is responsible for managing the school’s prevention plan (table in the appendix).
Finally, the school psychologist plays an active role in creating an inclusive, caring and safe school environment that promotes the success and well-being of all pupils.
