We are a multi disciplinary service that works alongside, and supports Blackpool schools by removing the barriers to children and young people achieving and reaching their potential. The external support, guidance and intervention given to students will help to:
- Improve their welfare
- Improve their attendance

- Prevent the family from being in receipt of statutory intervention.
The team is made up of a range of multi-disciplinary professionals including:
- Pupil Welfare Officers
- Police Community Support Officers
- Youth Workers
- Careers Advisers
- Health Workers
- Social Workers
- Family School Liaison Workers
Each school in Blackpool has a named 'Link Worker' who identifies and ensures that the relevant professional in our team is available to provide the support and advice.
If you need help with a problem, please contact the Headteacher at your child's school first who will give you details of who to contact for more help and advice.
