For Parents: Staying Safe

It is everyone’s responsibility to safeguard children.

If you are an adult and you are concerned about anything you witness in school, or the treatment of a child outside of school, you can do one of these things:

• Report it to the school’s Designated Safeguarding Leads (Mr Hudson, Mrs Alexandrou,  Mrs Bowkley, Mrs Ioakim, Miss Charles, Mrs J Organ) by phoning the school on 020 8363 1403 or emailing safeguarding@merryhills.org.uk
• Contact Enfield's social services:

     020 8379 1000 - Out of hours and at weekends, contact the emergency duty team

• You can email at childrensmash@enfield.gov.uk
• In an emergency, such as when someone is hurt or shut out of their home, please ring the police on 999
• You can also visit Childline or call them on 0800 1111

If you, or the person you are concerned about is over 18, you can do one of these things:
