Schools can request educational psychology support by completing a Request for Educational Psychology Involvement (REPI).

When considering whether to submit a REPI please refer to the Inclusion and Additional Needs Service Offer which can be found here Surrey Inclusion and Additional Needs service offer. This document contains helpful flow chats to assist you in deciding which service may be best placed to offer support.

You can request support for whole school development activity. The Surrey Educational Psychology team have developed a suite of bite-sized training modules which focus on the top eight psychological frameworks and approaches requested by schools and recommended by Educational Psychologists (EP). These have a strong evidence base and are impactful in meeting the needs of the whole school community including those with additional/ special educational needs. The modules are 60 to 90 minutes in duration and can be delivered at a time which minimises disruption to schools. If you are concerned about a number of students, we would recommend this route. You can request support for school development training by completing a REPI request form via the following link: Request for Educational Psychology Involvement.

You can request support when you are concerned about individual pupils. We will prioritise support for children who might be described as care experienced, child in need, at risk of suspension, permanent exclusion and placement breakdown, and pupils who are experiencing difficulties in accessing academic and social education including emotionally based school non-attendance. To request support for an individual pupil, please access the following link to complete a REPI request form: Request for Educational Psychology Involvement.
