Safeguarding

Keeping children safe is our highest priority. In our school, safeguarding is everyone's responsibility.

Our staff undergo rigorous and regular training on child protection and safeguarding, with a focus on how it applies in all aspects of our school life. They are trained to take responsibility for promoting and safeguarding the welfare of all pupils.  All adults who work in the school, including regular volunteers, are subject to Criminal Record Bureau (DBS) checks as well as rigorous employment and interview checking procedures. 

Our school Designated Safeguarding Leads (DSL) are Sian Hosmer, Ruth Halbauer and Suzanne Douglass. If you have any concerns regarding a child, please speak to one of our DSLs.

All schools have a responsibility regarding Child Protection. Should there be any case where a school has reason to be concerned that a child may be subject to ill treatment, neglect or other forms of abuse, then staff have to follow Child Protection Procedures, which may involve contact with Social Care.
