Did anyone get their number plate Julie?
They might have tried round other schools too.

They were only 5 years old, so still Reception age...if they weren't safely with their teacher until collection time when they were handed over to the parents, then one assumes they had been already handed over to the parents.
If they were with their parents then perhaps they slipped the leash and ran to the van?
In which case it's not the school that should be blamed it's the parents!!
And yet it wasn't the parents who ran to grab them, it was a teacher and a cleaner...so why was that?
Where were the parents?

Re: Attempted child abduction
Years ago in the early 1960’s, when l was about 10 or 11, my friend and l were walking along a road when a man stopped his car and asked us for directions. We told him the way and he said, ‘Jump in, l’ll give you a lift home’.Don’t ask me why because we were both sensible girls but we got into the car and he dropped us off by our homes.
I shiver now at the thought of what we did and what could have happened......

Re: Attempted child abduction
No parents around they were at playtime. So all the precautions about how to hand over to parents wouldn't help. I guess all they could do looking at the playground and the only entrance left open, is build another fence right round the play ground so kids can't get to the outer fence. I'd hate to see that it's enough like a prison as it is having all the gates locked.08-12-2017, 02:04 PM

Re: Attempted child abduction
I still don't get this .The children's playground should be and are in every primary school I have seen now completely secure .
There are no entrances left open and the children are not even visible from outside .
Not much use having four gates locked and one near to where cars have access left open.

So it was at playtime when two staff should've been on duty watching the children.
Thing is, it shouldn't have been possible for any child to get out of that playground full stop.
Security does not mean prison. Children must be kept safe at school.
Law. IN LOCO PARENTIS.
If the kiddies had been driven away in that van, the school would've been totally responsible.
The Head must now be looking for ways to make the playground totally secure (lock any gates, whatever) and the parents have every right to be worried and to ask questions!

Re: Attempted child abduction
The problem is the play ground runs right around the school right up to the fences. That's why I said only way to stop it is put up an inner fence which I doubt the school has money for.The school Gracie goes to only has playgrounds out the back with no access to the public at all. But not all schools are that lucky.
