National Educational Psychological Service (NEPS)

NEPS stands for the National Educational Psychological Service. We are psychologists who work in schools. A psychologist tries to understand young people – how you think, feel, behave, learn and get on with others. We may work with you, your parents/carers, teachers and others.

Sometimes things can be hard at home or in school, and the adults around try to help. The psychologist wants to understand what might help make things better for you.

Opening
hours: We work with students in school during school opening hours.

Phone: If you need support, the first thing to do is talk to a teacher or your parent/carer about what is going on for you. To support you further, your school may contact NEPS to help out.
