Safeguarding: Volunteers and Visitors

No child should suffer harm, either at home or at school. Everyone who works in our school has a  responsibility to make  sure that all our young people are safe.

This information is to make sure you understand what is expected of you. There is a leaflet you can download at the end of this webpage.  

If you are worried about the safety of any young person in our school, you must report this to the Designated Member of Staff in school.

Child protection Advice for Volunteers & visitors

As a school we are committed to safeguarding and meeting the needs of children and we hope this information will provide some useful advice and guidance when working with children at Nene Valley Primary School. All those who come into contact with children through their every day work whether paid or voluntary have a duty to safeguard and promote the welfare of children.

DBS checks

Nene Valley Primary School’s procedures specify that all volunteers who work with children three or more days in a 30 day period, or overnight, will require an enhanced CRB Disclosure. This is to help ensure that unsuitable people are prevented from working with children. The School office will inform you as to whether or not you require a DSB Disclosure. If you do not, you will not be left unsupervised with children.

Nene Valley Primary School Safeguarding Policy is available from the Policies page.

Please help us to safeguard the children in our care by following these guidelines.

First Aid

Any pupil, member of staff or visitor who requires medical attention should be referred to First Aiders immediately. Please report this to a member of staff who will inform a first aider or contact the school office.
