Safeguarding - After School

21 May 2025 (by admin)

Good morning all,

It has been noted that a number of parents/carers choose to remain on site after the school day, and allow their children to continue utilising school areas/equipment during this time.

It is important that we are able to secure the site as soon as possible following the end of the school day, and this is for a number of reasons including safeguarding our after school clubs, as well as the health and safety of the children accessing play equipment outside of our school hours. 

For this reason, we kindly ask that you vacate the school site promptly after pick up to allow for a member of staff to lock the external gates and secure the site. A member of staff will aim to lock up the site at 3.25pm every day, with the exception of year 5 parents on Wednesdays, where this will be slightly later. 

We appreciate your understanding and support in keeping our whole school community safe. 

thank you
