Child Protection
My main responsibility is to the welfare all children within my care. It is therefore my duty to act quickly and responsibly when any instance of concern comes to my attention.
I will report any suspicions of abuse to the local authority. They have a duty to investigate any instances reported to them.
My policy is to provide a secure and safe environment for all children and I aim to :
| • | Never place children at risk |
| • | Maintain confidentiality |
| • | Keep up to date on child protection issues |
Equal Opportunities
| • | I will respect family traditions and childcare practises |
| • | Regardless of race, religion, disability or social status all are cared for equally |
| • | Children are encouraged to co-operate and respect each other in a caring and non-aggressive manner |
| • | Discriminatory remarks or behaviour are not acceptable |
