Stone with Woodford Playgroup

Safeguarding is one of the top priorities here at our playgroup. We strive to ensure that each and every child and their family are safe and protected from any form of maltreatment or harm of any sort. We follow the current government guidelines and legislation which can be found online and include:

​

• Children's Act 

• Working Together to Safeguard Children 

• Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSIE)

• Safeguarding Vulnerable Groups Act 

• Multi-Agency Practise Guidelines 

• Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) Act 

• The Prevent Duty 

• General Data Protection Requirements (GDPR) 

​

The setting has a Designated Safeguarding Lead who is on site at all times. We have policies and procedures in place to support safeguarding of children and the staff within the setting, which include references to some of the above government legislation. If you would like to look at any of our policies please speak to a staff member when collecting or dropping off your child. ​​​
