Safeguarding

Safeguarding is about ensuring that everyone is safe from harm / exploitation and feels safe in our school. Harm can take many form; bullying, abuse (physical / mental), neglect, discrimination and harassment.

All our staff understand safeguarding to be of the highest importance and they know that their vigilance of the children and of the adults is critical. All staff and volunteers understand their responsibilities in being alert to the signs of abuse and their responsibility for referring any concerns to the Designated Safeguarding Lead (or in their absence the Deputy Safeguarding Lead). We are committed to the provision of child protection training for all our staff.

Safeguarding issues are regularly discussed at Governors, Senior Leadership Team and Staff Meetings and we work closely with a range of outside agencies, including Children’s Social Care.

For more information please read our Safeguarding policy (which can be accessed by using the link below). This policy applies to all staff, governors, professionals and volunteers working in the federation.
