Safeguarding Hayes Park School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all children and expects its staff and volunteers to share in this commitment. We have a school Child Protection Policy and procedures in place to support this. Parents and carers are welcome to read this policy on request or via the policy section of our school website. Sometimes we may need to share information and work in partnership with other agencies when there are concerns regarding a child’s welfare. We will ensure that wherever possible our concerns are discussed with a child’s parents or carers unless we believe this may compromise a child’s safety or welfare. Our designated Child Protection Staff are: Janna Murphy, Assistant Head Rachel Bates, Assistant Head Penny Woodman, Deputy Head teacher Sarah Blakey, EYFS Co-coordinator If you have any concerns regarding a child’s welfare please report this in confidence to a member of the Child Protection Team as soon as possible.
