Haringey Educational Psychology Service (EPS)

The Haringey Educational Psychology Service provide high-quality psychological support to children, young people, and their families to improve their educational and well-being outcomes. They work in partnership with families, children’s centres, early years settings, schools, further education settings and other agencies to improve their understanding of a child or young person’s educational, developmental, and psychological needs and how to meet them.

All educational psychologists in the team have had specialist postgraduate training in educational psychology and are registered with the Health and Care Professions Council.

They provide support to children and young people through:

• Consultations with staff and parents/carers about children who have emerging or ongoing special educational needs in schools or educational settings. We will help your child’s school or educational settings to put together a programme of support for your child.

• Individual assessment and advice on appropriate intervention programmes for children and young people with complex or more severe educational needs.

• Group-based programmes with children in small groups or with the whole class.

• Staff training and development in schools.

• Workshops to parents and carers to help develop their skills and confidence.
