Well-being

Here at Dorin Park we have three staff members who help pupils and families with well-being issues.

Alicia Dooley and Steph Williams
Well-being Group Leads

Alicia and Steph oversee school’s well-being provision and sit on the school’s Senior Leadership Team.

Maxine Nevitt
Family Liaison Officer

Supporting your child through the education system can be a challenging, rewarding and at times complex journey. In recognition of this we employ Maxine Nevitt, as a Family Liaison Worker.

She holds coffee mornings, where parents/carers can come for informal/social sessions with other parents/carers, and facilitates workshops.

Maxine can also support you with form filling for the Annual Review meetings or other such meetings. She has links with a variety of agencies and can often point you in the right direction for advice/support linked to other things outside school.

Maxine is also our Team Around the Family (TAF) lead and works with the safeguarding team to support families where a multi-agency approach is required/requested.

If you have further questions regarding Maxine’s role, or would like to request her support/advice, she can be contacted via the school office on 01244 470134.

Learning Disability Child & Adolescent Mental Health Services (LD CAMHS)

We also access mental health and well-being support from LD CAMHS.

LD CAMHS assist with behavioural or sleep issues. Parents/carers can self-refer their child or discuss referral with school. LD CAMHS will typically visit home and school.

For further information, you can call LD CAMHS on 0151 488 8041 or follow this link.
