Safeguarding

“Safeguarding leads are skilled and highly visible. They are well known by staff, pupils and families. Systems and processes are clear and widely understood. Staff record their concerns consistently and accurately. Leaders have strong relationships with other agencies.” (Ofsted, 2023) 

‍

We have policies and procedures in place that contribute to our safeguarding commitment, including our safeguarding policy, available on this website.

There are times when we need to share information and work in partnership with other agencies when there are concerns about a child's welfare. We ensure that our concerns about pupils are discussed with their parents / carers first, unless we have reason to believe that this could be contrary to the child's welfare. 

We actively support the Government's Prevent Agenda to counter radicalism and extremism.

We are an Operation Encompass School.

_{“Overall my children feel safe in school and I think that is just as important as feeling safe at home.” (Parent Survey, 2024)}

 _{“Pupils respond very well to the high expectations of staff. They behave well. Bullying is rare. When it happens, staff listen and act swiftly to address any unkindness.” (Ofsted, 2023)}
