Dear Parent / Carer

We would like to advise you that should a child make any disclosure to our trained staff we would always seek to investigate and resolve this at the lowest possible level, but that advice may need to be sought from the London Borough of Hillingdon Social Services Department. We hope that this would only be necessary on very rare occasions. However, this would always be in the best interest of the child, under our duty of care and in line with our safeguarding guidelines. For more information please refer to our Child Protection/Safeguarding Policy on our Statutory Policies page.

We would like to reassure all parents and carers that the school will always deal with any child protection issue as a matter of the utmost priority. We also hope that any parents or carers with child protection concerns would feel able to contact the school to seek advice from our designated child protection officers.

Mrs J Rigby - Head Teacher
