CHILD PROTECTION CONTACT TELEPHONE NUMBERS
Norfolk Education Department
From September 2000 all schools (Designated Teachers), other education establishments and LEA services will no longer go through the Education Welfare Service where there are concerns about a child in need or a child protection matter.
Schools and educational establishments (and other LEA services) will now go DIRECT to Social Services. The following numbers relate to where the child lives.
