Hartest CE Primary School is committed to the Safeguarding and Protection of all our children and members of staff.  All members of staff, Governors and regular volunteers are subject to DBS Checks and an interview panel will include at least one member of staff trained in Safer Recruitment Practices.  Visitors to the school are asked to sign in, read our visitor guidelines and wear a badge whilst on site.  All contractors are also asked to provide photo ID.

An Appendix has recently been added to this document, in response to the school’s closure during the COVID-19 outbreak. Please see Appendix D here: Appendix_D_Temporary_guidance_safeguarding_in_schools_during_COVID_19_pandemic
