COLLECTION OF CHILDREN POLICY

We will do all in our power to look after and supervise children whilst in our care. It is, however, essential that the children be collected promptly after each session. We also are not held responsible for the child, after parent/carer has arrived and has signed for the child in the dropping off and picking up book.

Aim:

In the event that a child is not collected by an authorised adult, we will ensure that the child receives a high standard of care in order to cause as little distress as possible.

Collection of children

All parents/carers must complete a registration form when their child starts Fontmell Magna Under Fives, giving two or three emergency contact telephone numbers, which must be kept up to date.

Parents/carers must also state in writing who is to collect the child after each session and inform us in advance if there is to be any change.

We also inform parents that – in the event that their children are not collected from our setting by authorised adult and the staff can no longer supervise the child on our premises – we apply our child protection procedures as set out in our child protection policy.

It is essential that important information on the registration form be kept up to date.

Parents/carers must inform Fontmell Magna Under Fives in writing immediately of any important changes to:

Domestic arrangements which could affect collection of the child, e.g. a court order in respect of residence of the child or who the child is able to have contact with.
Parental responsibility agreement.
Home/work telephone numbers.

These details need to be amended on the registration form Famly.

- It is essential that children be collected promptly after each session. Should you believe that you will be late to collect, please inform the pre-school as early as possible so that arrangements can be made. In the unlikely event that a parent is more than fifteen minutes late and has not contacted the pre-school leader, all contact telephone numbers on the registration form will be tried, then the pre-school leader will contact Social Services duty help line to take advice.

If a child is not collected within 15 minutes at the end of the session, we follow the following procedures;

Under no circumstances are staff to go to look for the parent/carer, nor do they take the child home with them.

Two members of staff will stay with the child until parent/carer turns up.

If a member of staff knows that the child has a sibling at St Andrews School, the School will be phoned to check on sibling collection.

A full report of the incident is recorded in the child’s file.

The child does not leave the premises with anyone other than those named on the registration form and in the drop off, pick up book.

OFSTED may be informed.

Pre-School learning alliance will possibly be informed.

We will contact Children’s Social Care and take advice 01258 472652
