Getting Help

Our safeguarding Staff are here to help, if you require support they can be contacted via the school office on telephone: 01159728469 or by emailing safeguarding@st-laurence.derby.sch.uk

If you have concerns that a child is being harmed or living in circumstances that might be harmful in the future, these concerns will always be taken seriously.

You may be worried about what might happen to you or your family if you report your concerns. When someone makes a call to talk about their concerns, they will always be asked for their name and contact details – so they can be contacted again if needed. However, you can ask for your details to remain confidential, or provide information anonymous.

If you believe that a child is at immediate risk and in need of protection then you should call the Police – 999, immediately.

Alternatively, if you want advice from the Police and the child is not in immediate need of protection, you can call the Police on the telephone number 101.

Children’s Social Care and the First Contact Team

You may want to discuss your concerns with a Social Care worker. Starting Point deals with all concerns about Children and Young People across the county. Members of the team will help you to talk about the concerns you may have for a child and decide what actions may be required to make a child safe. They can be contacted on 01629533190
