About Us

Safeguarding

Everyone who comes into contact with children and their families has a role to play in safeguarding children.  School staff are particularly important as they are in a position to identify concerns early and provide help for children, to prevent concerns from escalating.  (Keeping Children Safe in Education, 2023)

Safeguarding is what we do for all children and young people to keep them safe whilst in our care.  Child Protection describes the policy and procedures specifically for those young people who are at risk of serious harm or have been seriously harmed.

Safeguarding starts as soon as children enter the school. We ensure that all our staff are well-trained and know how to behave appropriately.  Our staff and volunteers go through all safeguarding checks on successful appointments to the school.  When staff have concerns they know who to speak to and understand the next steps that will take place.

Roles and Responsibilities:

Staff with designated responsibilities for safeguarding undertake regular specialist training.  All staff members and anyone who volunteers with us undertakes training in child protection, this is refreshed yearly. We also undertake comprehensive background checks on all staff and any volunteers corroborating references for all.
