Child & Adolescent Mental Health Service

CAMHS provide a valuable service to ACE.

There are a high proportion of pupils who receive education support from ACE who suffer with a variety of mental health difficulties. For most cases the child is already being supported by CAMHS. However there are other children who may also be struggling with aspects of their mental health in relation to their illness.

There is full-time support provided by CAMHS for ACE in order to help these children in accessing education at ACE and overcoming barriers to education as a result of their mental health.
Support can include:
-Outreach support including some home visits 
-Advice and guidance to parents
-Individual support for children who are under CAMHS
-Small group work supporting social anxiety and peer relationships


ACE has a close working relationship with CAMHS. All teachers and support staff receive training in a variety of aspects of mental health.

This support is delivered  by CAMHS clinician OiYi Pereira Filipe

In addition ACE has a CAMHS key worker who provides support to pupils.
