Safeguarding – What to do if you are worried about a child.
If you are working with a child and are concerned about comments the child makes, marks or bruising, changes in behaviour or demeanour, then this could be a vital sign that a child may be being neglected, experiencing physical, emotional or sexual harm or is being exposed to extreme views or has been radicalised. It is your duty to report these concerns to the Designated Safeguarding Leads without delay.
Concerns about the Headteacher must be escalated to the Chair of Governors.
Safety
All adults in school must adopt safe working practices. Do not put yourself in a vulnerable situation with a child that could lead to misinterpretation.
Adults must react to any health & safety concerns in a way to reduce risk and report any concerns to the office immediately.
