Amanda Leahy
I am the Home School Liaison Teacher for Saint Joseph’s Secondary School. My role within
the school is part of the ‘Delivering Equality of Opportunity in Schools’ Scheme. My main role
is to be a support to parents/guardians by offering a key link between home, school and the
community. I offer a wide range of support and guidance with the key aim of helping your
child reach their full potential in school.

Supports offered by the HSCL:
 Home visits
 Support parents to ensure your child’s regular attendance at school
 Assist with the transfer of students from primary to secondary school
 Liaise between parents and teachers
 Support with your child’s behavioural and emotional issues
 Link families with local agencies e.g Jigsaw
 Run courses to promote parents’ personal development
 Run courses to promote parents’ positive participation in your child’s education

I am here to help so please contact me on 0860201209 if you have any questions

Please keep an eye on the school website and for posters on social media for
upcoming courses and activities.
