We have produced the leaflet below, which gives you an introduction to safeguarding and child protection within our school.

Safeguarding Policy

Policies are reviewed regularly. Please click on the policies section to view a selection of our Safeguarding Policies.

Information Sharing

In order for us to safeguard your child effectively it is essential that we are provided with key information. including any medical, dietary and allergy needs. Also, we must hold a minimum of 2 emergency contact numbers. Any changes to your child's personal health and welfare circumstances, including contact details for parents/carers and any restrictions on contact with family members, must be reported to us immediately.

We may, in rare circumstances, need to make a Child Protection referral or seek advice from Children's Social Care, without the knowledge or consent of parents/carers.

Operation Encompass

Operation Encompass is a national scheme. Police share information with schools when they have attended a domestic abuse incident. This enables schools to offer immediate support to children experiencing domestic abuse.

Safeguarding Information for Parents and Carers

We have created additional pages that are packed full of safeguarding information and handy tips, for parents and carers. Click here to view the menu of information available.
