All parent helpers regular or adhoc MUST BE required to have a CRB before coming into contact with our children.

Additional Information

Under the current safeguarding children act parent helpers in schools and nurseries must only have the normal checks carried such as a CRB if they are a regular helper. Adhoc helpers can be excused from this process as they are "supervised". Parent helpers stretch to step parents grandparents in fact anyone that wants to volunteer. Introducing a child to a stranger in a trusted environment like school means that to the child that person is no longer a stranger and therefore they become a trusted adult to the child in and out of school. Whilst in school they are supervised outside of school they may not be. I would like to call that we enforce the official child protection checks on ALL helpers adhoc or regular, supervised or unsupervised and commence this immediately.
