Specialist Support
Medical Services
Each student is registered with the local GP, Dr Bradley, who has worked with the school for 20 years and therefore has a good understanding of our students and their needs. Our
students are also able to access a local Dentist, Community Paediatrician, Community Nurse, Health Visitor, Community Dietician, Speech and Language Therapist and Community
Physiotherapist.
Consultant Clinical Psychologist
We retain the services of Professor F.C. Mace who visits the school 20 days per year and
provides a 24 hour on call service. His main role is to carry out functional behaviour
assessments and develop behaviour management plans for our students as well as advising staff on how to support students through their plan.
Consultant Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist
We retain the services of Dr T Dyer who visits the school once a month and provides a 24 hour on call service. He ensures all the mental health needs of our students are met and that all prescriptions are reviewed regularly.
Consultant Chartered Educational Psychologist
Our Consultant Educational Psychologist, Bernard Levey is registered with The Health
Professionals Council. Bernard visits the school once every half term.
Consultant Speech and Language Therapist
Our Consultant SLT is Ailisa Bower, who visits the school to work with students once a
fortnight.
Advocacy Service
We use Tros Gynnal to provide advocacy for our students, who they visit every fortnight. Through advocacy our students are helped to have their voices heard and ensure their views are respected. This may be because they want something to happen, they want something to change or they want something to stop.
