Information PagesChild Protection Schools have an important part to play in the detection and prevention of child abuse. Parents should be aware therefore, that where it appears to a member of the school staff that a child has been abused, the school must report the matter to the Social Services Department or the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children immediately. Consequently, in such situations it is likely that a social worker will contact the parents, not the school. This requirement forms part of the local authority's procedure for dealing with child abuse and it is not a matter for the discretion of individual headteachers or members of the school staff.
