Safeguarding

Safeguarding is everyone's responsibility.

Our school is committed to the highest standards in protecting and safeguarding the children entrusted to our care.

Our school will support all children by:

• Promoting a caring, safe and, positive environment

• Encouraging self-esteem and self-assertiveness

• Effectively tackling bullying and harassment

We recognise that some children may be the victims of neglect, physical, sexual, or emotional abuse. Staff working with children are well placed to identify such abuse.

In order to protect our children, we aim to:

• Create an atmosphere where all our children feel secure, valued, and listened to

• Recognise signs and symptoms of abuse

• Respond quickly, appropriately, and effectively to cases of suspected abuse.

If you have a concern that a child is being harmed or is at risk of harm, please contact our Lead DSL Mrs Nicola Pinnegar, Headteacher.  If she is not available, please contact one of our Deputy DSLs: Lauren Davidson, or Rachel Frost.

If anything worries you or concerns you, report it straight away.
