Worried about a child? Say something.
You do not need to be sure, and you do not need proof. If something feels wrong, tell us and let the people trained for this take it from there.
This page is here for the rare moment something feels wrong, but the care behind it runs all year. Every child's safety and wellbeing comes first at ELC, and that is a promise the whole community keeps together, with teachers and families in partnership.

What happens after you report
Your concern goes to the campus safeguarding lead, who decides the next step the same day. The school follows a written process, from first report to action: you can read the safeguarding triage chart and the full safeguarding and child protection policy. You will be taken seriously, and raising a concern in good faith is always the right thing to do.
