Child Protection

The school takes the safeguarding and welfare of it’s pupils very seriously. It school works in partnership with parents to support children in every way possible. If, therefore, concerns are raised within the School or a child or parent reports a situation involving possible abuse, we would not be able to guarantee confidentiality. It would have to be referred to Social Services. This is in line with Suffolk policy.

The Head teacher is the person responsible for co-coordinating the school’s Child Protection Policy. The policy is available on request.

Accidents
In all cases of emergency the Head teacher will endeavor to get in touch with the parents concerned, but if this is not possible she will act on the advice of the Medical Officer consulted. Several members of staff have recently received First Aid training from St. John Ambulance trainers.

Home Contact System
A form will be sent home at the beginning of each school year on which emergency contact numbers must be given and returned to school. We ask that we are kept informed of any changes to these details.
