Your child's safety comes first

You're trusting us with the most important person in your life. Here is exactly how we keep every child safe at EasyLearning121 — in plain English, with nothing buried in small print.

Vetted, DBS-checked staff

Every member of our team holds an Enhanced DBS certificate. Before anyone works with a child, they complete an interview, safeguarding and health & safety training, and a full staff induction — with ongoing training modules after that.

Our designated safeguarding lead

Julie Wallsh is our Designated Safeguarding Lead and completed her Designated Safeguarding Lead training on 9 June 2026. Any concern — from a child, parent or staff member — goes to her and is handled following our written safeguarding policy.

How to raise a concern: speak to any member of staff at the centre, or contact Julie directly by WhatsApp or phone on 07472 044 547 or by email at info@easylearning121.co.uk (mark it "Safeguarding").

If a child is in immediate danger, call 999. You can also contact the Essex Children and Families Hub directly on 0345 603 7627.

Sign-in, sign-out and collection

  • Children are signed in on arrival and signed out only to a named adult.
  • Collection arrangements — including exactly who will pick up — are agreed at drop-off. If someone different is collecting, tell us in advance; we'll never release a child to anyone we're not expecting.
  • If you're running late, call us — your child stays supervised, calm and safe until you arrive. No late fees, no stress.

While you're away (our No Parent Policy, explained)

During sessions, parents wait outside the teaching room. This helps children focus and build independence — and here's what makes it safe to step away: DBS-checked staff only, a supervised space, and a comfortable waiting area on site — with cafés a short walk away if you'd rather.

Children with additional needs or medical requirements can have a parent present by prior arrangement, and younger or anxious children can have settling-in sessions.

First aid & premises

Three members of our team are trained in paediatric first aid. We keep a first-aid kit and accident log on site, follow a written fire evacuation procedure, and hold public liability insurance.

Online safety

Children use the IXL platform on centre devices under the direct supervision of their mentor at all times. Photos: we never photograph a child's face. We sometimes take photos of sessions for our website and social media, always from behind or over the shoulder so no child can be identified, and we hide names on screens and work. If you'd rather your child isn't in any photos at all, just tell us.
