Safeguarding

 

The welfare of our children at Gorse Ride Schools is our paramount concern.  We want all our children to be safe and to feel safe.    

​

Upon arrival, all visitors must report to either the Infant Reception Office or the Junior Reception Office where they will be required to sign in and will be issued with a Visitor Pass.   Visitor Passes must be worn and displayed prominently at all times.

​

Whilst on school premises, ALL visitors are required to :

​

• dress appropriately

• use appropriate language at all times

• use adult toilets only

• treat everyone with respect and tolerance

• immediately inform one of the Designated Safeguarding Leads if a child makes a disclosure or if you have any concerns about the safety or well-being of a child

​

Whilst on school premises, ALL visitors must not : 

​

• instigate verbal or physical contact with pupils unless it is appropriate and a part of the agreed reason for your visit

• give any personal information to pupils (eg : phone number, email address, social media user names)
