Local Schools Partnerships operate across Hertfordshire providing family support through schools. Within North Herts there are four partnerships; Baldock, Letchworth, Hitchin and Royston.
Family Support can be working with the whole family, parents/carers or signposting. The emphasis being to remove barriers to learning for the specific child for which a school has made a referral.
To find out about the support available to you please contact your child's school.
