Welcome, and thank you for visiting the Compass Educational Psychology website.
We’re Dr Pierre Court and Faye Court — and together we founded Compass Educational Psychology in 2023 with a simple goal: to make high-quality psychological and wellbeing support more accessible to schools, families and the professionals who work with children and young people across the UK.
Pierre is an Educational & Child Psychologist with over 15 years of experience working in education and psychology, and Faye brings warmth, lived experience and a counselling background to the team. Between us, we cover a wide range of support — from in-depth psychological assessments and school consultations, to counselling, mindfulness and staff wellbeing.
This blog is our space to share knowledge, spark conversations and offer guidance on some of the topics we care most about. We want it to be genuinely useful — whether you’re a parent trying to understand your child’s needs, a teacher looking for practical strategies, or a professional wanting to keep up with developments in the field.
Here’s a taste of what’s coming:
- What an Educational Psychology assessment actually involves — and what to expect
- Supporting children with anxiety in school settings
- Social media and young people — insights from Pierre’s published research
- Understanding Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs) — a guide for parents
- Self-care for educators — why it matters more than ever
- Mindfulness in practice — simple tools for everyday wellbeing
We’ll be posting regularly, so do check back — or get in touch if there’s a topic you’d love us to cover. We’d be happy to hear from you.
Warm wishes, Pierre & Faye Compass Educational Psychology
