Diane Quinn, former Principal Educational Psychologist of Hartlepool Borough Council

Unhappy at School?

Is your child unhappy at school and not fulfilling his or her educational potential? Our Educational Psychologist's role can include any or all of the following:
  • To carry out an assessment of your child's learning or emotional difficulties.
  • On the basis of the assessment, to offer individual therapeutic support and/or advice to parents and teachers in a written Psychological Report.
  • To chair and structure effective meetings between parents and staff in school so that partnerships can be formed and targets set that will benefit the child.

Child and Family Services:

An Initial Consultation Session:

Depending upon the problem, I can often show you that you already have the ability to help yourself. Parents have found these sessions to be helpful and of practical value in themselves, whether or not any further specialist work is agreed to be undertaken by the Educational Psychologist.


Comprehensive Individual Assessment

Assessment of your child’s cognitive abilities, competencies, strengths and weaknesses. Full Psychological report including advice and recommendations. Some children, despite adequate intelligence, find it difficult to learn. This service is particularly appropriate for parents of children and young people who are encountering problems in education, which may involve learning difficulties.

Collaborative Psychological Therapy.

This service is particularly appropriate for parents, children and young people who may be encountering social or emotional problems including stress and relationship difficulties within school or within the home and family.

"An excellent course, very well presented. I felt really comfortable and not intimidated by Diane to give answers” - (Support Assistant)
