Safeguarding and security procedures - ID Cards for learners

During September we revised our Safeguarding Policy and set out improvements to our security and visitor arrangements. The policy includes very specific guidance on dealing with bullying, including cyberbullying, which is the subject of our current blog. Your tpm representative will be providing a hard copy for you to update your Employer Manual shortly.

Please be advised that these arrangements mean that all callers visiting our centre will be asked to produce a form of photographic ID, such as a driving license, student card, passport or company ID card. This ensures that only the people we want to gain access to our training centre do so.

Since we created our Internet Lounge at 66 Lime Street, this leisurely space has proved very popular with learners. In order to keep this popular resource and all areas of our learning centre completely safe and secure, we now are introducing tpm ID Cards for all learners. From the 1st of December 2009 all learners will be required to wear their ID Cards Visibly at all times in the centre. Any learners without ID will be required to wear a visitor badge.

ID Cards have already been prepared for existing learners. In order to collect these, learners simply need bring 2 passport photographs into centre next time they attend and ask our administrator Josh Fearon to process.

If you have any questions regarding safeguarding or security, please do not hesitate to contact our safeguarding officers, Tammy Vickery or Brian Quinn.
