Family Liason

Pupil Support Officer (PSO) Mrs M Cridge

Bosmere Primary School believes that children and families can be supported to be the best they can be through parents/ carers, children and staff working together as a team. As parents/carers you are the most important people in your child’s life and by working together in this way, we can provide Bosmere Primary School children with the best possible emotional, social and academic start to their lives.

We know that family life can, at times, be both difficult and challenging.

In order to support Bosmere Primary School families with barriers they may face, Bosmere Primary School has employed a Pupil Support Office (PSO), Mrs Cridge.

How can the PSO support Bosmere Primary School families?

  • Support positive behaviour (both at home and school)
  • Provide parents/carers with advice around routines and boundaries
  • Help to improve school attendance
  • Support and signpost families to gain support with domestic issues such as housing, finances, benefits, relationship issues
  • Support and signpost families to gain support for children and parent/carers experiencing physical and mental health issues
  • Support families through any social care interventions

  • Support to understand their child/ren’s school life and how parents/careers can positively support this.

Who can access PSO support?

  • The service is voluntary and free of charge
  • Parents/carers can refer themselves or their child/ren via an initial conversation (which can be via the school office email: admin@bosmereprimary.net) with the child/ren’s class teacher.
  • The class teacher will then liaise with Mrs Cridge, who will contact you directly.
  • Bosmere Primary School staff can refer parents/carers/children (with consent) to the PSO via the PSO referral system.

I very much look forward to meeting with you!
