Safeguarding

Safeguarding and Child Protection– everyone’s responsibility

At Edison Primary School, the safety and wellbeing of every child is our highest priority. We are committed to creating an environment where children feel secure, listened to and confident that any worry they raise will be taken seriously.

All our staff and volunteers are trained in safeguarding and child protection, and we follow the statutory guidance Keeping Children Safe in Education alongside the procedures of the London Borough of Hounslow and the local safeguarding partnership.

Our Designated Safeguarding Lead and Deputy Designated Safeguarding Leads are pictured in our main reception and staff room, and our Trustees maintain oversight of safeguarding across the school.

We work closely with parents and carers, and with partner agencies, to make sure children get the right support at the right time.

If you have any concern about the safety or welfare of a child at our school, please speak to a member of staff straight away — you will never be wasting our time.

If you believe a child is at immediate risk, contact Hounslow Children's Services on 020 8583 6600, or the police on 999.

London Borough of Hounslow Children’s Services office is open Monday to Thursday 9am to 5pm, and Friday 9am to 4.45pm.
