Safeguarding
We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and we expect all staff, governors and volunteers to share this commitment. We believe that pupils have a right to learn in a supportive, caring and safe environment which includes the right to protection from all types of abuse.
Everyone who works or volunteers at the school is subject to an enhanced DBS disclosure.
Our safeguarding policies are available below.
Local Safeguarding Children Boards
Local safeguarding children boards are partnerships between local councils, police, National Health Service (NHS) and other key partner agencies working together to safeguard children, young people and adults.
