Abstract
ABSTRACT This two-part study investigated how educational psychologists (EPs) might support schools working with young people (YP) with eating disorders (EDs). Part one explored the current support in UK schools for secondary-aged pupils with EDs, and the areas that parents (n52) and school staff (n39) felt needed further development, using online questionnaires. Data were analysed, using descriptive statistics and thematic analysis to inform the focus for semi-structured interview questions for part two, whereby eight EPs offered their views on aspects highlighted in part one. Ways forward are discussed, including how input to schools could be implemented. In summary, staff and parents considered that the support schools offered could be greatly enhanced. Four themes emerged from the EP data, which included recommendations for EPs to improve the support around EDs in schools. This study highlights the potential role EPs could have in supporting schools, working with YP with EDs, and their families.
