Safeguarding Children in school is the responsibility of all staff who work within the school. We ensure all staff are aware of their responsibilities.

In order to ensure that best practice is maintained, our policies are reviewed regularly to incorporate the latest statutory guidance emerge. If you would like more information on safeguarding, please contact the school for all our policies or view our policies section on our website.
