Pupil Support Worker

Hi, my name is Gary Fielding and I am the recently appointed Pupil Support Worker here at St. Paul's. I have spent the last 15 years working with children and young people in a variety of roles.

 I spent almost 4 years with Children’s Social Care as a Residential Childcare Worker. I then spent 10 years at Rhyddings Business and Enterprise School, first as a Learning Mentor then on to Pastoral Head of Year. My wife and I are also foster carers.

I have a passion for supporting children and young people in valuing themselves and others, achieving their best individual outcomes and supporting parents/carers in that process.

My role supports with -

Attendance/punctuality

High School transition

Family circumstances that may affect your child

Housing

Medical/Health Concerns

Well being support

Providing a listening ear/someone to talk to

Helping parents/carers via phone calls, informal chats or appointments

Agency Links

This list is not a definitive list however as every day is different and the role is always developing.

Please feel free to contact me via the school’s phone number if you feel I can help in any way,

Thank you, Mr Fielding.
