Here at Rockmount Primary School, we are working to develop our community's understanding of adoption for both looked after and previously looked after children. The Designated Teacher for looked after and previously looked after children is Hayley Gorman. 

Support from other professionals

We have been working with Barnardo's Adoption Services who have been supporting us with considering how we deliver aspects of our curriculum in order to support adopted and looked after children. This is something that we are continuing to review and develop. You can find out more about Barnardo's and their work here.

For further information please have a look at the following links:

• Government information for parents/carers about adoption, fostering and children in care 
• Peer to peer support community by adopters, for adopters 
• Adoption support agency
