How to share information
You can use different formats to share information with school visitors such as:
- Your school's website
- Physical copies of information packs and leaflets
- Emails ahead of a visit
- Letters sent home with pupils
Consider which format would best serve different pieces of information. This will depend on the type of information, when visitors will need to know about it, and the different groups who visit your school.
Groups of visitors may include:
- Parents
- Volunteers
- Contractors
- Speakers
- Charitable or religious partners
Use the policy page of your website
Signpost parents and visitors to relevant school policies, such as safeguarding, specific visitor policies, or codes of conduct.
Make sure any information you send to visitors is in line with the latest version of your policies.
Safeguarding information
It's important visitors to your school receive all the necessary safeguarding information so they can be compliant with your policies and help keep your school a safe place.
