Employee Support helpline

Life doesn’t always go the way your employees plan. Unexpected problems or issues in their work or home life can make getting through the day a struggle.

To assist CEFM member schools with their commitment to supporting the wellbeing of their employees and their families, we provide access to an employee counselling and education support helpline.

Qualified counsellors are available 24/7 to provide telephone support on any matter causing your employees distress or creating anxiety. This confidential employee counselling service ensures they have access to professional advice whenever they need it.

The education support helpline is entirely independent of your school, giving employees the reassurance that help is always available, fostering a healthier and more balanced work environment.
