I'm getting my head in a twist and up my arse atm () and am hoping some wise Mners can help me?
I'm having to write a formal complaint to DS school re an incident of common assault where they didn't follow the behaviour policy and as a result my Ds has been too anxious to attend school.
I believe it's a safeguarding issue because they lied after Ds school refusal and didn't follow the policy and therefore didn't seek witness statements or ask Ds, the victim to make a written record of events. (Which he's been asked to do previously for more 'minor' incidents)
Where I'm becoming confused is reading the safeguarding policy it's seems to be written with regards protecting a child from abuse/neglect etc from outside of school (eg from parents etc) whereas I believe the school have failed to protect Ds health and wellbeing.
Is there some other policy I'm missing or does the same policy, despite its wording cover incidents of physical assault within school too?
