Links and Further Support

Abuse (physical, sexual, emotional) or neglect can have a damaging effect on a child’s physical and mental health, educational attainment and emotional well-being.  Some changes in a child’s behaviour may not necessarily indicate that a child is suffering abuse or neglect. In some cases those changes may be symptoms of a hidden disability, undiagnosed medical condition or a change in medication.

The physical/emotional health and well-being of you and your children is the most important thing there is. On this page you will find a range of resources that may support the well-being of yourself or a loved one.

If you have any concerns about how your child is coping or you feel you need any other support from the school please contact us by phone on 01243 602746 or by email office@seal-tkat.org

If you wish to contact your child's teacher directly, please do so through the year group emails.

If you become concerned about:

  • Comments made by a child
  • Marks or bruising on a child
  • Changes in a child’s behaviour
  • Changes in a child’s appearance

Please report these concerns to one of our Safeguarding Leads.

 

If you have concerns, please do NOT decide to do nothing or leave our school without telling anyone.
