Supervision Sessions

Ensuring pastoral and safeguarding teams are supervised is an Ofsted requirement.


At The Arthur Ellis Mental Health Foundation, we have colleagues trained in Clinical Supervision who can support your team's CPD whilst improving the safeguarding and continuity of care for students.


Supervision Groups are automatically built into our Provisions so you can rest assured you’re covered! However, if we feel like someone in the team could benefit from a more individual approach, we can facilitate 1:1 supervision too!
