Coronavirus update to our Safeguarding
![](/_site/data/images/news/19/main-safeguarding.jpeg)
We'd like to update parents and carers on Safeguarding relating to Coronavirus
1. Context
From 20th March 2020 parents/carers were asked to keep their children at home, wherever possible, and for schools to remain open only for those children of workers critical to the COVID-19 response - who absolutely need to attend.
Schools and all childcare providers were asked to provide care for a limited number of children - children who are vulnerable, and children whose parents are critical to the COVID-19 response and cannot be safely cared for at home.
