School Policies Keeping Your Child Safe

Child Protection Statement At Donnington Wood CE Junior School, we recognise that your child is your responsibility and their safety and well-being your concern. We wish to work in partnership with you, and we will share successes with you, and discuss with you any concerns that we may have. Since your child’s welfare is also our first priority, there may be rare occasions when our concern for your child means that we have to consult other agencies.

We will endeavor to contact you in the first instance and share our concerns and where possible, seek your consent to a referral being made to Children’s Social Care.  

However, this will only be done where we believe that such discussion will not place your child at further or increased risk of significant harm. The welfare of the child will be paramount and will override any other considerations where we consider that to be the case. The procedures we follow are those laid down by the Telford & Wrekin Safeguarding Children Board.  

The school has adopted both Child Protection and Anti Bullying Policies for the safety of all.

If you would like to know more about our procedures or the policies, please speak to Mr Fox, Mr Rawson or Miss Ganderton, who are the Designated Safeguarding Leads (DSL).
