Website Child Protection Policy

Boldon Outdoor Nursery operates the following policy on its website regarding the use of photographs and content, to ensure the privacy and safety of children at the school:

  1. Where children are named, only their first names are given.  If a full name is required, permission has been given by the parent for the family name to be included.
  2. Where a child is so named (full name), no photograph of that child is shown.
  3. Where a photograph is used which shows several children, no names are displayed.
  4. No private information about children is ever published on the website.

 

By following this guidance, Boldon Outdoor Nursery ensures that visitors to the website cannot link images of children to names of children. When choosing photographs for the website, the nursery is mindful of the way children may appear in them and will not include images which are in any way inappropriate.

 

Any feedback or messages to nursery that are shared to our message board will only include first names.
