"It could happen here”

We recognise our moral and statutory responsibility to safeguard and promote the welfare of all children.

We make every effort to provide an environment in which children and adults feel safe, secure, valued and respected, and feel confident to talk if they are worried, believing they will be effectively listened to.

Please see the main policy page for the school 'Safeguarding and child protection policy' and 'Child on Child Abuse Policy'.  The purpose of these policies is to provide staff, volunteers and governors with the framework they need in order to keep children safe and secure in our school. The policies also inform parents and carers how we will safeguard their children whilst they are in our care.

In addition, we have our safeguarding newsletters for you as parents each term which offer advice on internet safety and any other current issues in our area.  (see below)
