Child Protection

Child Protection

Care of your child is extremely important to us. Every school in Derbyshire is required to follow a set procedure in cases of suspected child abuse. All Headteachers are expected to refer any concerns to the Social Services Department for further investigation so that children at risk can be identified quickly. When a school refers a concern about a pupil to Social Services Department it is not accusing parents of abuse but simply following Derbyshire Child Protection Procedure by passing on required information.

Creswell Infants and Nursery has a culture of listening to children. Mrs Dodd and Mrs Burdett are the School named designated lead professionals for Safeguarding. Mr Jones  is our Family Support Worker.

School has a Child Protection Policy. This is available to parents on request. Please contact the School office.
