Safety & Well-being

Every child deserves a safe place to learn

NEED HELP NOW?

Important Contacts

Access a list of verified contacts and organizations that offer assistance, advice, and support for children and families.

A Child-First Response

Concerns should be received calmly, recorded accurately and escalated through the legally required route.

Listen and protect

Listen without judgement, reassure the child that speaking up was right, and address any immediate safety or medical need.

Report promptly

Do not investigate, confront the alleged person, or promise secrecy. Preserve relevant information and follow mandatory POCSO and child-protection reporting procedures.

Support and privacy

Share information only with those responsible for protecting the child, while arranging appropriate counselling, family and statutory support.

Reports and records to keep current

The national guidance calls for regular safety reviews, inspections and transparent follow-through—not a once-a-year exercise.
