The Spring

The Spring Family Centre – Aspire, Contribute, Explore

At Springfield Primary School, we are proud to offer The Spring Family Centre — a dedicated space where families, pupils, and our pastoral team can work together in a safe, supportive environment. The Spring Family Centre is at the heart of our school's commitment to working with families to promote wellbeing, attendance, positive behaviour, and safeguarding. Our team offers a warm and confidential setting where parents and carers can access a wide range of support services.

Our pastoral offer is designed to provide compassionate, tailored support that helps children thrive both academically and emotionally. We deliver a range of interventions to meet individual needs, including THRIVE, ELSA (Emotional Literacy Support Assistant), and Drawing and Talking therapy. Support is available on a 1:1 basis or through small group work. Alongside our in-school team, we work with a Child Wellbeing Practitioner to provide additional specialist support, ensuring families can access the right help at the right time.

We also run parent group sessions throughout the year, offering advice, guidance, and a chance to connect with other families. Our Little Springers Family Group welcomes parents with children of any age to enjoy play opportunities and activities together in our warm, friendly setting.

At The Spring Family Centre, we believe in working together with families to build strong foundations for happy, confident, and resilient children. Through Early Help and strong partnerships with external agencies, we can connect families with the right services at the right time. Whether it’s mental health, housing, finances, or other challenges, we’re here to help. The Family Centre also offers assistance with school uniform, ensuring every child feels part of our school community and ready to learn.
