Safeguarding Information

 

We all have a statutory duty to “safeguard and promote the welfare of children”.

​

If you have any concerns about the health and safety of a child at this school or feel that something may be troubling them, you should share this information with an appropriate member of school staff straight away. Some issues e.g. a child’s appearance, hygiene, general behaviour, can be shared with any teacher or member of support staff in the school.

 

Do not worry that you may be reporting small matters – we would rather that you tell us things which turn out to be small than miss a worrying situation.

 

However, if you think the matter is very serious and may be related to a child protection concern, e.g. physical, sexual, emotional abuse or neglect, you must talk to one of the people below immediately.

 

Any allegation or disclosure involving a member of staff must be reported directly to the Head, unless it involves the Head and then it should be reported directly to the Chair of the Governing Body.
