Important information
Key safeguarding information
Safeguarding concerns
In most circumstances, the school will endeavour to discuss all
concerns with parents/carers about their child/ren.
However, there may be exceptional circumstances when the school
will discuss concerns with Social Care and/or the Police without
parental knowledge, in accordance with Child Protection procedures.
The school will always aim to maintain a positive relationship
with all parents/carers.
