North Star Outreach

NSO are a dedicated team whose remit is to provide effective early intervention and work with colleagues in mainstream primary schools to support and manage children identified as having Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) needs. Effective intervention is defined as the early identification of concerns, early assessment and early support. Working together, we aim to advise and support schools to plan and implement provision so that children with SEMH improve their overall outcomes, attendance and engagement. Working collaboratively with schools allows us to individually tailor the provision required with the aim of enabling all children to achieve their full potential and develop the resilience and behaviours needed to succeed within a mainstream setting. Our Outreach offer centres around the need for the child, the staff and the school. We believe in working collaboratively with schools to assess need, problem solve behaviours presented and joint plan possible next steps. This allows us to individually tailor the provision required, with the aim of enabling children to achieve their full potential and develop the resilience and behaviours needed to succeed.
