Pear Tree Infant and Nursery School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children.

We have a robust Child Protection and Safeguarding Policy in place, which enables staff and volunteers to be confident in identifying and raising concerns to the Designated Safeguarding Leads.

The Designated Safeguarding Leads are:

Mrs. B Suddhi Head Teacher Designated Safeguarding Lead

Mrs. S Khan Deputy Head Teacher Deputy Safeguarding Lead

Mrs B Suddhi is the Designated Safeguarding Lead for our school and nursery, with responsibility for all Looked After Children (LAC).  Mrs S Khan is the Deputy Safeguarding Lead.  

If for any reason, Mrs Suddhi and Mrs Khan are not available, then staff, children, parents/carers and outside agencies, you are able to speak to:

Safeguarding is everyone's responsibility and any concerns should be referred to the school.
