The International Bring and Share Breakfast for staff was so rich, varied and colourful; there was so much food it turned into lunch and supper as well!

 

 Mandeville school has a highly committed and trained staff team of over 120 people. Class teachers, Nursery Nurses and Teaching Assistants comprise the class teams and each class team is assigned one or two school meals supervisory assistants who support the pupils at lunch time.

Therapy Team - Our staff team is supported in their work by expert advice, training and input from the therapy team which includes Speech and Language Therapists, Occupational Therapists, Physiotherapists and Clinical Psychologist. Each week a Music Therapist from the Ealing Music Therapy Project visits the school to work with individuals and small groups of pupils. 

Medical Team - Mandeville has two full time school nurses and two health care assistants, who look after the care and medical needs of all pupils. Each class team has at least one member of staff trained within paediatric first aid and we have a number of staff also trained in First Aid at Work. Some pupils have a one to one Health Care Assistant to support their medical needs in the classroom. 

Education Social Worker (ESW) - Our ESW works proactively with families to support them to safeguard their children and understand what they are entitled to as carers. She is able to offer advice and support on a range of issues, including welfare benefits, housing problems and respite care. She also has a duty to monitor pupils’ attendance and will discuss with parents any concerns regarding attendance.
