Safeguarding

Moorside Primary School and Nursery is committed to ensuring the welfare and safety of all children in school. All North Yorkshire schools, including Moorside Primary School and Nursery, follow the North Yorkshire Safeguarding Children Board (NYSCB) procedures.

The school will, in most circumstances, endeavour to discuss all concerns with parents about their child. However, there may be exceptional circumstances when the school will discuss concerns with Social Care and/or the Police, without parental knowledge (in accordance with Child Protection procedures). The school will, of course, always aim to maintain a positive relationship with all parents.

The school shares a purpose with parents to keep children safe from harm and to have their welfare promoted.

If you would like to find out more information about keeping children safe please refer to our Child Protection Policy or visit the following recommended websites :-

Reviews from the Children and Parents

School Visitor

Lauren's Assembly in April 2022 "Thank you for such a warm welcome, for the children's excellent behaviour and such thoughtful questions".

Y6 Parent

Reading at Moorside "I think the teachers are doing a fantastic job with reading. I believe the access children have to other forms e.g. Reading Plus etc means they are less likely to be bored and then choose to read a book as entertainment".

Mason, Year 3

Reading at Moorside "I love hearing stories from my teacher and choosing books out of the library".

Reception Parent
