Information for parents and carers

What can Parents and Carers do to support with Safeguarding your child?

At South Chingford Foundation School, we value our partnership with parents and carers. This section brings together key information, support, and guidance to help you stay connected with school life and keep your child safe, both in school and online.

If you believe a child is in immediate danger, call 999.

Stay Connected

You can use the following platforms to stay up to date with your child’s progress and our wider school community:

Arbor – check attendance, reports, and communication from school.
School Newsletter and safeguarding newsletter – stay informed about upcoming events and achievements, as well as information regarding safeguarding.
