What do I do if I have a concern about the safety, care or welfare of a child or young person?

If you have a concern about a child or young person, you can contact our designated child protection leaders Mrs Hunt (Executive Headteacher) or Mr Leeman (Deputy Head, Infant School)

However please speak to any member of staff if you have a concern you think needs sharing as they will inform the relevant person.

Or you can:

Contact Lincolnshire Children's Services During office hours - 8.45am to 5.15pm (4.45pm Friday) telephone 01522 782111
In an emergency, outside office hours (including weekends or Bank Holidays) telephone 01522 782333
Report a concern online via Lincolnshire Local Safeguarding Children Board website Lincolnshire LSCB Website
Contact the police on 101 or 999 if in an emergency.

IF YOU ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OR WELL BEING OF ANY CHILD YOU KNOW, YOU SHOULD ACT WITHOUT DELAY.

Many people worry that their concerns or suspicions may be wrong or that they are interfering unnecessarily or that someone else might report it. Our advice would be to report in any case to the school or Lincolnshire Children's Services team where they can give advice and the professionals can process the information you have.

Safeguarding children is everyone’s responsibility and it is always better to be safe and report a concern, as your information may be part of a much bigger picture.

E-Safety

The internet is such an integral part of children's lives these days. It opens up so many educational and social opportunities, giving them access to, quite literally, a world of information and experiences.

Whether on a computer at school, a laptop at home, a games console or mobile phone, children and young people are increasingly accessing the internet whenever they can and wherever they are.

As you would protect your child in the real world, you will want to make sure that they are safe whatever they are doing. Like learning to cross the road, online safety skills are skills for life. If your child understands the risks and can make sensible and informed choices online, they can get the most from the internet and stay safe whilst doing so – particularly from those people who might seek them out to harm them.

As a parent this can be quite daunting to keep up with the ever changing world of social media, whether that be mobile phone or computer based activity. Here is a brilliant website that you can access and gain up to date information. You can also learn about the current teen speak your teenagers may be using. (MOOS, P999 AND WYRN).
