SAFE PEOPLE, SAFE PLACES
Please see below for the advice we give our boys on "Safe People, Safe Places". If you have any concerns or queries, please do contact the Safeguarding Team via firstname.lastname@example.org.
- Make sure their parents or another adult know where they are at all times.
- Always walk straight home or to the place you are walking to. Walk near busier roads and streets, or use paths where there are lots of other people.
- Know where safe places are – a shop, service station, police station, library or school. If they are ever frightened, they should go to one of these places and ask them to call the police.
- Learn about safe adults they can look for and talk to if they need help – police officers, teachers at school, adults you know and trust.
- Don’t talk to people they don’t know and never get into a car with someone they don’t know. If a car stops on the side of the road and they don’t know the person inside, do not stop.
- If they are scared and can use a phone, call 999 and tell them you are scared.
- If someone tries to grab them, yell out, ‘Go away, I don’t know you’. This lets other people know you have been approached by someone you don’t know.
