What is the role of a Parent Family Support Advisor?

• behaviour (in and out of school) 
• parenting concerns 
• family issues 
• emotions and relationships 
• healthy eating 

• attendance at school 
• housing 

• budgeting 

• feeling isolated 
• finding information for parents and carers who want to go back to work or into their own education or career 

• Transition from Primary to Secondary school 

They can also be available just to listen and support if you feel you need someone to talk to in confidence. 

They can arrange to meet you in school or at home or somewhere that feels right for you.
