    Default late collection ?

    If a parent is late and has not contacted you. How long do you wait before contacting them and what is the next step if you cannot contact them.

    Thanks

    What have you put in your late collection/uncollected child policy & procedure?

    Mine states that if parents have not let me know they are going to be late then after 15mins I will contact parents, if no contact made after 30mins I start to contact emergency contacts, If still no contact from parents or emergency contacts after 2hrs, I will contact Social Services.

    I hope you hear from them soon.

    Exactly the same except only an hour to Social Services same as schools do.

    Thanks at the moment i have a blank on my policy as i wrote it this afternoon and was not sure if there was a legal Ofsted rule about the procedure for parents being late and being unable to get hold of them.
