Safeguarding

At Herrick Primary School, our pupils' welfare is of paramount importance. Our aim is to safeguard and promote our pupils' welfare, safety and health by fostering an honest, open, caring and supportive climate. As such it is important that all of our parents are aware that;

The school has a statutory responsibility to share any concerns it might have about a child in need of protection with other agencies and in particular police, health and children's services. Schools are not able to investigate concerns but have a legal duty to refer them. In most instances, the school will be able to inform the parents/carer of its need to make a referral. However, sometimes the school is advised by Children's Social Care or police that the parent/carer cannot be informed whilst they investigate the matter. We understand the anxiety parents/carers understandably feel when they are not told about any concerns from the outset. The school follows legislation that aims to act in the best interests of the child.

The school ensures children learn in a safe, caring and enriching environment. Children are taught how to keep themselves safe, on and off line, to develop positive and healthy relationships and how to avoid situations where they might be at risk, including by being exploited.

If you have any safeguarding concerns please contact the school.

In the case a child is in immediate risk, please call social care on 01164541004
