Support and Information

The community at Robert Blair is very diverse and the school is aware of the challenges and barriers our parents and young people sometimes face. We recognise the pivotal role of schools within a community and are fully committed to supporting the wellbeing of all our children and families.

The school offers support to parents and families through weekly workshops which are open for all. Our Pastoral team are also available for support and sign posting and we’ll include links and information on this page as often as we can. Our staff are available to talk to parents at ‘soft start’ and at the end of the school day. Parents are also welcome to make appointment with relevant staff member to talk about any concerns.

Internet Safety

Apps and sites develop ways to influence our behaviour – making us more likely to remain on a site, game or platform for longer periods of time. These techniques are known as ‘persuasive design’ and can have a particularly profound effect on children. There are plenty of things you can do to stop your child being ‘presuaded’ by the techniques. Click here to find out about ‘persuasive design online’ and how it can affect children.
