We also receive support from NHS Therapists. ### School Nurse - There have been recent changes in the School Nursing system and we now have access to a school nursing team, their role is provided by the NHS and they comes into school to do the Year R checks for height, weight, sight and hearing on any child that is 5 years old. Requests for a referral to them can be made by either a parents or teacher with concerns about a child’s development i.e. wetting/soiling, hearing/vision concerns or on-going health issues that are non-urgent i.e. headlice, hygiene, dietary issues. ### Mental Health in Schools - We have a member of the Mental Health in Schools team visiting us regularly to support children and parents. Please ask for further information. ### Safeguarding - [Safeguarding at Glenfield Infants](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/safeguarding-at-glenfield-infants) - [Safeguarding Resources](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/safeguarding-resources) - [Safeguarding Newsletters](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/safeguarding-newsletters) - [Education Welfare Officer & Pupil & Family Support Officer](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/education-welfare-officer-pupil-family-support-officer) - [External Support](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/external-support) - [Safeguarding Online Safety](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/safeguarding-at-glenfield-infants/safeguarding-online-safety) ![Glenfield Infant School](https://files.schudio.com/glenfield-infant-school/images/logo/logo-footer(1).png) ### Glenfield Infant School Rossington Way Southampton SO18 4RN 023 8022 7966 ### Useful Links - [Vision & Values](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/vision-values) - [Attendance](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/attendance) - [Governors](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/governors) - [Volunteering](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/volunteering-at-glenfield) - [Policies](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/policies) ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/GlenfieldInfantSchool) ### Translation [![Hamwic Education Trust ](https://files.schudio.com/glenfield-infant-school/images/logo/Copy_of_White_Outline_Icons_(500_x_500_px)_(200_x_200_px)_(3).png)](https://hamwic-education-trust.schudio.com) © Copyright 2025–2026 Glenfield Infant School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
