Reflective Practice for School Staff
Reflective practice provides Pastoral and Safeguarding staff
with a supportive space to think about their work in greater depth,
by exploring challenging professional situations in a safe and non-judgmental space with a qualified and experienced practitioner.
Schools are increasingly supporting children and families
with complex emotional, behavioural, and safeguarding needs. Staff working in pastoral care and safeguarding roles often carry significant emotional responsibility alongside their day-to-day duties.
This service provides professional reflective practice for school staff
and clinical supervision for school counsellors, helping teams
feel supported, confident, and resilient in their work.
About the Service
Delivered by a qualified, BACP-Accredited Child &
Adolescent Counsellor with extensive experience working within the independent school sector.
I have worked closely with pastoral, safeguarding teams and nursing staff to ensure a joined-up and compassionate approach to supporting young people. This experience has given me a deep understanding of the emotional demands placed on school staff and the complexities of working within educational settings.
Sessions provide a safe, confidential, and supportive space for staff to:
- Reflect on challenging situations and
relationships
- Explore the emotional impact of safeguarding
and pastoral work
- Develop confidence in decision-making and
professional boundaries
- Improve wellbeing and resilience
- Strengthen communication and team
understanding
- Reduce stress, burnout, and compassion fatigue
Support can take place fortnightly or monthly, depending upon need. Options include:
