Safeguarding
Safeguarding our pupils and staff is our utmost priority. Our policies and procedures that we have in school are all to be located in our school policies page on the website (yellow tab).
Safeguarding children is everyone's responsibility however we do have some members of staff who have a specific responsibility for safeguarding. They are:
- Penny Shaw, Headteacher, who is our Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL)
- Beki Hull, Home School Link Worker, Assistant Designated Safeguarding Lead
- Sarah Taylor, Assistant Headteacher, Assistant Designated Safeguarding Lead
- Alison Ryan, Assistant Headteacher, Assistant Designated Safeguarding Lead
If you have any concerns about a child in our school, please contact any of our DSLs who will be happy to help. If you have any concerns about the conduct of a member of staff in the school, please contact the Headteacher, immediately.
We welcome visitors to our school. Our priority is to ensure our school remains a safe place for our children, staff and all other members of our school community. Anyone who visits our school must comply with our safeguarding procedures.
If you have any concerns, please make us aware, we will always listen and seek to address them.
Further useful contact details can be found on page 45 of our child protection policy.
