SAFEGUARDING AND CHILD PROTECTION
Vision
'Inspired beginnings; outstanding futures'
At Westfield Nursery School we are committed to safeguarding all our stakeholders. The well-being of all children and adults (parents, carers, staff, students and visitors) is paramount. To this end we follow certain procedures. It is our duty of care to monitor and act on any disclosures. We work closely with outside agencies and all staff are DBS checked.
We ask all parents/ carers and visitors to the site report straight to the school office and respect our request not to use mobile phones on site.
We are here to help and support and can often signpost to helpful outside agencies. Please come and talk to us if you need to.
