Families First Information

January 30, 2025/in General News/by Isabelle Stuckey

Please see the below information about Families First.

‘Families First is the term used in Hertfordshire for services that work together to support families who need extra help. These are also known as early help services.

We all experience difficulties at some point. Families First can help you find early help and information to prevent issues from getting worse.

If you need more help than your usual support network – for example your health visitor, school, doctor or family centre – we can work with you and your family to create a package of support.

Who is it for?

Families First is available to all Hertfordshire families with children under 18 (25 if they have a learning need or disability).

Issues we can help with:

  • parenting
  • mental and physical health problems
  • drug or alcohol dependency
  • domestic abuse
  • school related concerns – such as your child is not attending school
  • debt problems
  • risk of becoming homeless.’

Year 10 Work Experience

January 27, 2025/in General News/by Isabelle Stuckey

Year 10 students have now all been given their PIN and a student ‘Quick Guide’ to enable them to access the work experience website hcc.learnaboutwork.net to start choosing their work experience placements.

A reminder that Year 10 students should be choosing 3 placements and rank ordering them from 1-3 in order of preference. Students cannot be guaranteed their first choice, so all 3 of their work experience placement choices need to be ones which they can get to and would be happy doing for the week. If your son or daughter has organised a private placement by completing the appropriate form and returning it to school, they will not need to choose a placement from the website.

All private placement forms should be returned to school no later than February half term. It is expected that all Year 10 students will be on a work experience placement during the week of 12th-16th May 2025.
