Safeguarding

If you have a concern about a child during school term time, please report it immediately. You can email your concern to office@gorseland.net and your concern will be forwarded to the Designated Safeguarding Lead. You may prefer to telephone the school office requesting to speak to the Deputy Safeguarding Lead or an Alternate Safeguarding Lead.

Staff and volunteers can report a concern using our internal systems that can be found on the staff webpage.

If you have a concern about a child during the school holidays, please report your concern immediately to 'Customer First' at Suffolk County Council.

If it's an emergency, you can call:

• Customer First on 0808 800 4005 if you're worried that a child or young person is at risk of harm, abuse, or neglect.

• The Police on 999.

If you have a safeguarding concern for a child you see out in public, please report your concern immediately to 'Customer First' at Suffolk County Council or follow guidance provided by the NSPCC.
