Supervision of Visitors

At Just Kidding After School Club, we aim to protect the children in our care at all times. This includes making sure any visitors to the club are properly identified and supervised.

All visitors must sign the visitors’ book on arrival and departure. Where applicable, visitors’ identity should be checked, e.g. Ofsted inspectors or colleagues attending in a professional capacity such as speech and language therapists. Visitors are informed of any relevant policies including the fire evacuation procedure and mobile phone, camera and other recording devices policy including use of smartwatches where applicable.

All visitors are given and should be identify by a member of staff.  A member of staff must always accompany visitors in the club while in the building; at no time should a visitor be left alone with a child unless under specific circumstances arranged previously with the manager.
