Safeguarding & Child Protection
The Governing Body takes seriously its responsibilities to safeguard and promote the welfare of all children; and to work together with other agencies to ensure rigorous and robust arrangements within our school to identify, assess, and support those children who are suffering harm.
We recognise that all adults, including temporary staff, volunteers and governors, have a full and active part to play in protecting our pupils from harm, and that the child’s welfare is our paramount concern.
All staff believe that our school should provide a caring, positive, safe and stimulating environment that promotes the social, physical and moral development of the individual child.
Our Safeguarding Leads are:
DSL: Mrs. Lisa Smith - Headteacher
DDSL: Mrs. Tanya Jaryczewski - Deputy Headteacher
DDSL: Mrs. Francesca Reynolds - KS1 and EYFS lead
DDSL - Mrs. Lucy Knowles - Nursery Lead
The school aims to ensure that:
- appropriate action is taken in a timely manner to safeguard and promote children's welfare
- All staff are aware of their statutory responsibilities with respect to safeguarding
- Staff are properly trained in recognising and reporting safeguarding issues
