Main Policies

Playaway and Stayaway seek to provide a safe, productive, respectful and enjoyable environment for both staff, attendees and parents. We require all staff to read and understand these policies before each programme and will be required to sign to confirm compliance. For staff who work in PACE you will be familiar with the policies in Pt 1-3 however policies in Pt 4 are unique and should be read in detail. We are keen to find the right balance with our policies given that we only provide 3 weeks of programme a year and any comments or obeservations from staff would be gladly recieved.

The policies are split into 4 Parts. Part 1-3 are general policies and should be familiar to all PACE staff; these policies can be accessed by clicking on the Part number.
