The Educational Psychology Service is launching a new telephone support service to help provide advice and consultation to West Lothian families, school staff, and our partner agencies during these unusual times.\u00a0 We aim to provide support, advice, or even just a listening ear for anyone who has concerns about how to support their own or a child\u2019s wellbeing.<\/p>\n
The service will be available from\u00a0Monday 30th<\/sup>\u00a0March<\/b>,\u00a0 Monday to Friday from 9.30-12.30 and people are invited to call in to our main EPS number on\u00a0 01506 283130 or send an email to our general email box at:\u00a0ed.psych@westlothian.gov.uk<\/a>\u00a0to leave a message and an Educational Psychologist will call them back.<\/p>\n We would advise anyone who calls or emails in to give a brief description of the reason for their call and the child\u2019s name (if they\u2019re calling in relation to a particular child or young person) in their message.\u00a0 This will help us to direct calls to an EP who may already be known to the family or member of staff,\u00a0 though we welcome calls from everyone\u2014regardless of whether they\u2019ve had previous involvement with our service or not.<\/p>\n We are also regularly updating helpful information and resources to our website that anyone can access:\u00a0https:\/\/www.westlothian.gov.uk\/article\/50765\/Coronavirus-Helpful-Resources<\/a><\/p>\n \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Educational Psychology Service is launching a new telephone support service to help provide advice and consultation to West Lothian families, school staff, and our partner agencies during these unusual times.\u00a0 We aim to provide support, advice, or even just a listening ear for anyone who has concerns about how to support their own or … Continue reading “Educational Psychology Helpline”<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13113,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6358],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12294","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-pupil-learning"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/wl\/Carmondean\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12294","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/wl\/Carmondean\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/wl\/Carmondean\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/wl\/Carmondean\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13113"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/wl\/Carmondean\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12294"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/wl\/Carmondean\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12294\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12295,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/wl\/Carmondean\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12294\/revisions\/12295"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/wl\/Carmondean\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12294"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/wl\/Carmondean\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12294"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/wl\/Carmondean\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12294"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
