Safeguarding concerns outside of school hours

Outside of school hours, if a parent, carer or member of the public has an urgent safeguarding concern about a child requiring an immediate response, the following action should be taken:

 

• If a child is at immediate risk of harm, contact:
  • Lincolnshire Children’s Services 01522 782111 (Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm) or 01522 782333 (outside office hours)
  • The police
• If you have a concern about domestic abuse, call EDAN Lincs on 01522 510041.

 

These agencies are equipped to respond at any time, including evenings, weekends and holidays. They will always contact the school’s DSL or DDSL if needed. This ensures that concerns can be acted on promptly, even when the school is closed.

 

If you have a general concern or need to contact the school DSL, please email the school and it will be followed up during working hours.

 

Safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children is everyone’s responsibility. Everyone who comes into contact with children, their families and carers has a role to play in safeguarding children.

Our duty of care is to safeguard all pupils at Tealby Primary School. We take this role seriously and follow the Lincolnshire County Council Policy and Procedures in reporting concerns to Children's Services. Our comprehensive policy can be found below, covering all aspects of this area of our work and the legislative guidance is also listed.

Lincolnshire Children's Customer Service Centre can be contacted on 01522 782111
