Safeguarding

We are committed to safeguarding children and promoting children’s welfare and expect all staff, committee members, volunteers and visitors to share this commitment and maintain a constant vigilant and safe environment.

Safeguarding Is Everyone’s Responsibility.

Parents/carers should be aware that all of our staff are legally obliged to follow up any concerns they may have around Child Protection.

Our designated Senior Child Protection Officer is Mrs Schofield. Miss Farrell is our Child Protection Officer. The Child Protection Team is supported by the Child Protection Administrator.

Safeguarding children and young people is the responsibility of everyone.

The member of the Senior Leadership Team responsible for Safeguarding is Ms Johnson, Co-Headteacher (Designated Safeguarding Lead).

Should any member of staff have a concern about a student, they have a duty to report their concern immediately through CPOMS to a member of the Child Protection Team.

If we are concerned that a child/young person is at risk of significant harm or is being abused, we will refer these concerns to Children, Families and Social Care (CFSC) and/or the Police if necessary. In some circumstances this may happen without the consent or knowledge of parents/carers.
