Performance criteria
At the end of the day, children are asked to line up and they go outside with their
class teacher. The children are not allowed to go home unless a familiar adult is
there to collect them. Children are not allowed to be collected by anyone under the
age of 16. The office staff should be informed of any alterations to a child's usual
routine eg going home with another relative or the parents of a friend, and this
information is then passed onto the teacher concerned, or parents/carers can tell
their child's teacher directly of any changes. Children whose parents/carers are not
at school on time to collect their children have to wait with a member of staff until
their parents arrive. Should a child's parent/carer be exceptionally late, the child is
taken to the school office and a telephone call is made to explain the situation and to
ask them to collect their child as soon as possible. The child stays with a member of
staff until collected by a familiar adult.
