Family Support

Family Support at Monks Abbey Primary School is available to all pupils, their parents and carers and takes lots of different forms. The role of family support is to work with children and their families who may be experiencing short or long-term challenges that may be impacting on a child and their learning. We work in close partnership with local services including  Food Banks, Health Services, Housing and debt charities and other agencies from both statutory and voluntary sectors.  By working together we can identify appropriate support to help support you and your child.

Food Bank

The food bank has been set up to cater for the needs of families in the school. Any pupil whose family is struggling financially can come and collect a bag of groceries. Staff can also make referrals to local food banks and community grocery stores.

If you or someone you know, needs our support please contact us on:
01522 527705 or foodbank@monksabbey.lincs.sch.uk. 

Wellbeing & Mental Health Support

The emotional welfare of our families is of the greatest importance and having a dedicated Family Support Worker enables these issues to be given the time and care needed to be sensitively and compassionately worked through together.
