Early Help

Early Help is a pathway to supporting you and your child as they grow up when you or they may
need further support or guidance.

Providing early help to our pupils and families at Catshill Middle School means we can improve outcomes for children, families, and communities, providing support as soon as a problem emerges, at any point in a child’s life, from the early years through to teenage years.

Everyone needs help at different times, but sometimes It's hard to find the help we need. So hopefully this page gives our parents and members of our Catshill Community the guidance to find help when they need it. 

Worcestershire Virtual Family Hub is full of advice and guidance and Catshill Middle School will always support families to receive the help needed. 


The School Holidays. 

Holiday Activity & Food for Redditch and Bromsgrove.

The Starting Well Partnership, Sports Development team and the Community Safety team have worked together to give parents additional help over the summer holidays.

The purpose of this funding is to provide free holiday provision, which includes healthy food and exciting activities, to school-aged children eligible for benefits-related Free School Meals, and to support families who are just about managing.

The offer is varied and will give children the opportunity to try something new!

It’s easy to sign up! Parents can follow this link : www.haf-it.co.uk

To apply to our local foodbank, please contact Mrs T Andrews on [email protected].

Local Library information. 

Bromsgrove libraries will run activities throughout the summer holidays including the summer reading challenge. This is a great activity for children to get involved in, and we would love to hear about the books they have enjoyed reading! 

Useful Information can be found on our Bromsgrove Parenting and Community Team help sheet.
