Safeguarding

We recognise that all staff and governors have a full and active part to play in protecting our students from harm, and that the welfare of the children is our paramount concern.

All staff believe that our school should provide a caring, positive, safe and stimulating environment that promotes the social, physical and moral development of the individual child.

This section provides parents with a wealth of information about how to support their child with hot topics such as online safety and terrorism. If any parent is concerned about a child's safety they should contact a school safeguarding officer or social care.

Keeping children safe is everyone's responsibility

  • Designated Safeguarding Lead – Mrs Jane Bird
  • Deputy Safeguarding Leads - Mrs Caroline Evans and Mr Stephen Case

If any parent/carer/ family member or member of our school community is concerned about a child they should make contact with the Safeguarding Leads in school or contact the social care Gateway on 01752 668000.

If any parent has concerns over our procedures, practices or curriculum content, they should come and discuss this with the Headteacher.
