PACT has welcomed a new team member to help drive its innovative new project to provide adoptive parents with education support.
Last month, we shared the exciting news that PACT had secured funding for the Early Education Pathways Project (EEP).
Alongside Adopt Thames Valley, Buckinghamshire Adoption and Coram Ambitious Adoption, PACT will work with schools and adoptive families across the region to deliver specialist support for adopted children during their primary education.
Earlier this month, PACT was delighted to welcome Emma, our Adoption Support Education Adviser to the team. This is a new role within PACT’s adoption support service, which will foster positive and effective relationships between schools, educational and other professionals and adoptive families.
Emma will work alongside Amy, our Education Lead, to support the implementation and development of the EEP Project.
Emma said: “I am excited to be part of the Early Education Pathway Project as it aligns closely with my commitment to supporting families and professionals to achieve the best possible outcomes for children. I value working with families in a proactive, strengths-based way, recognising their unique knowledge of their child and building positive partnerships from the outset. I look forward to contributing to a project that promotes early support, collaboration, and inclusive practices that make a meaningful difference for children and their families.”
Amy has praised Emma’s expertise, saying “I’m so delighted to welcome Emma to our Early Education Pathways team. Her wealth of experience, dedication to achieving positive outcomes for children, and compassionate nature reflect the values of the project. I know that the families we support will benefit greatly from her understanding, dedication, and ability to build trusting relationships, and I am really excited to have her as part of our team to help drive this project forward.”
