Safeguarding
Safeguarding and keeping children safe
We believe that:
- all children should feel safe
- all children have the right to protection from neglect and abuse
- their welfare is of paramount importance.
As a school, we pride ourselves on creating a strong safeguarding culture based on trust, confidence, respect. By valuing each and every member of the school community, we ensure that every individual pupil is appropriately safeguarded in line with the Local Safeguarding Children’s Board policy and procedures.
