Bury School Psychologist
The main role of our school psychologist in Bury is to ensure school going children are health mentally, which is key to their success in academic work. Therefore, our role extends beyond guidance and counselling children in a school setting. We can help create school-wide system that ensures each student can access professional support regarding academic work and mental health whenever they need it.
In the past few decades, there has been a significant increase in the number of mental health problems among school-going children. For example, some students report that they feel anxious about issues going on in their families or even at school. Imagine a student whose parents are going through a divorce. Or a student from a poor background where most luxuries can’t be afforded. Similarly, children who are bullied or feel overwhelmed by pressure from home and school to achieve certain grades in academic tests.
Experienced School Psychologist Bury
At Inner Circle Psychology, we know that not every child can access professional mental health support from their homes or even in private settings. That’s we recommend having a school psychologist in your Bury school. This would make it easy for the children in your school to access the mental health support they need at any time.
Unlike a case where a child’s parent or guardian has to book an appointment with a therapist, school-based mental health support is accessible and immediate. In addition, a child will be getting help from a professional who specialises in children's education and development. Therefore, our trained and certified school psychologist is better positioned to successfully help students with emotional or mental health difficulties.
Another way our school psychologists help children is by encouraging them to dedicate themselves to achieving academic success. Learning activities extend beyond classroom activities. Building confidence and learning peaceful conflict-resolution skills are also key parts of the learning process. In fact, these are key life skills that will be helpful for children throughout their school life and even beyond.
Our trained school psychologist in Bury works closely with teachers and children’s parents (when necessary) to create an inclusive and supportive environment where pupils feel encouraged to learn and thrive in their academic work as well as social skills.
At Inner Circle Psychology, we know that the first step in supporting children’s emotional and mental health needs is to understand those needs in the first place. That’s why we take assessments seriously. We assess each child to identify any emotional or psychological difficulties they may be experiencing. We also focus on their ability to understand and retain the information they learn in class.
Through our thorough assessments of school system and children, we help schools under the strengths and weakness and any learning disabilities among the children. We also identify behavioural and emotional concerns that could hinder effective learn. We’ll work closely with the school to address these issues and ensure the children in school can learn and thrive in social skills as wells as academic work.
