A Place2Be

​

Here at Ilfracombe Church of England Junior School, we are lucky enough to work in partnership with Place2Be, a children and young person’s mental health charity. They provide incredibly valuable services within our school setting to support both our pupils and their families.

 

Below is a brief introduction from the practitioners we have working here.

 

Hello everyone, my name is Gaynor, and I work for Place2be as the mental health practitioner/ counsellor in your school. I work with children, one to one and in groups to support their mental health and wellbeing. Life can be hard and confusing at times, my aim is to provide a safe space where children can explore their feelings and learn about themselves, developing their confidence and self-belief.

 

Hi everyone, my name is Fern and I am the Family Practitioner at Place2Be. I work with families to strengthen relationships, facilitate positive time together, and work on addressing any challenging behaviour at home. I am available to offer support and guidance to parents across a range of behavioural issues.
