Spring 2010 - March Newsletter

Dear All,
 
Ofsted has directed all schools to check their safeguarding in schools to ensure children are safe and cared for.  We have risk assessed our procedures here at Folly Hill and are happy that our children and staff are safe.
 
However we there are some areas we need to tighten up on in order to fulfil Ofsted regulations:
  • We will be installing a gate at the front of the school which will be closed when children are on the playground.
  • We will need to ensure that non CRB checked persons are not in the school unaccompanied and this includes parents.  Contractors will be asked to come before or after school.  If this is NOT possible they will be accompanied at all times.
PLEASE bring your child to school on time - any late comers should be left at the school lobby area and a member of staff will take your child through to the classroom.
 
  • Handwriting workshops - please enter the classroom through the outside door and tick your name on the list by the door - cross it through when you leave.  This is for your safety if we have to evacuate the building. Only children accompanied by an adult will be able to attend handwriting workshops.
  • You will be asked to sign in for other workshops which run during the school day such as maths and Internet café.
I will be working with children in school council to discuss the parts of the school where they feel safe and where they do not.
 
Do you have any comments on the safety of your child at school?  Please let us know.
 
Our safeguarding statement may be found on the Folly Hill Infant School web site »here«.  I am sending you our Safeguarding leaflet outlining our arrangements.
 
Many thanks for your co-operation.
