Operation Encompass

What to do if you have concerns about a child?

                   

 

Please see our safeguarding policy and procedures, including the PREVENT duty to protect children from radicalisation and Operation Encompass.

We are an Operation Encompass school; it is an integral component in our child safeguarding and protection policy.

Operation Encompass is a partnership between police and schools, ensuring that all incidents of domestic abuse are shared with schools, not just those where an offence can be identified.

If you think a child is in immediate danger please call 999.

If you think a child may have been abused outside school - if you are a friend, relative or neighbour of the child, call the Leicestershire First Response Children's Duty Team on 0116 305 0005 where you will be able to speak to a Social Worker about your worries. The Social Worker will discuss these with you and take as much information as possible. You will be able to remain anonymous if you wish and a Social Worker will discuss this with you.

If you think the abuse may have happened in school or you have any other concerns, please contact the Designated Safeguarding Lead Mrs Phil Millward or our Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead Mrs Nicola Bailey on 01664 812244.
