East Dunbartonshire schools and nurseries have a system in place for monitoring and reviewing the progress and wellbeing of all children and young people. Each local authority nursery and school has a named (or ‘Link’) Educational Psychologist who visits them on a regular basis. Each nursery and school has a Pupil Support Group or Support for All Group which is attended by the link Educational Psychologist, as well as other professionals eg. Education Support Teacher, Speech and Language Therapist. These groups meet regularly and aim to create a multi-agency team which discuss support needs across the school/nursery. If appropriate, and with parental consent, the nursery/school can request assistance from our Service. We only become involved with parental permission or if the young person is over 12 they can provide consent.
