Our Pastoral Support

Navigation

A warm welcome from The Pastoral Team! Please find below information about our team, and also some useful links and information.

 

Home School Link Worker (HSLW)

My name is Annie Welch. I have worked in children and family settings for over 30 years, having a few years out of the workplace to care for my own two children in their infancy.

Over the years, I have, through training and experience, developed knowledge and skills in many approaches that support children, families and colleagues. These include guidance and advocacy on understanding behaviour and recognising their challenges, as well as providing individual or group work to promote the emotional wellbeing of our students.

Much of my role involves liaison with or signposting to other key agencies such as Health, including CAMHS: Children’s Services: Voluntary and Charity organisations etc. I use a “toolbox” of skills and interventions creatively in my work, and I have learned a great deal from Gosden House children, families and colleagues.

Annie is in school Tuesday to Friday.

Pastoral Assistant

Hello, I'm Jane Cowles, Gosden's Pastoral Assistant, supporting the work of Annie (HSLW) and expanding the Pastoral Team🙂. Many of you may already know me, as I have been a Teaching Assistant here for the last 8 years. My role is to provide support for children and their families with worries outside the classroom and to work closely with Annie and the Teachers across the school. We are aware that for lots of reasons, there are many challenges to families currently. If you have any concerns or need support, please feel free to phone the school and ask for me, or contact me on my email address:

jcowles@gosden-house.surrey.sch.uk.

I work from Monday to Wednesday.

We can both be reached via pastoral@gosden-house.surrey.sch.uk or by calling 01483 892008

They meet regularly to help bring about changes in Surrey that affect young people with SEND. It is a great way for our young peoples’ voices to be heard but also offers up lots of fun and social opportunities which are free!
