Safeguarding Statement

Schools play an essential role in protecting children from harm. They have

 regular contact with children and young people so are in a strong

 position to identify signs of abuse and neglect.

Our school safeguards children by:

• creating a safe environment for children and young people through robust safeguarding practices
• making sure staff are trained, know how to respond to concerns and keep-up-to-date with policy and practice
• ensuring that adults who work in the school, including volunteers, don’t pose a risk to children
• teaching children and young people about staying safe
• maintaining an environment where children feel confident to approach any member of staff if they have a worry or problem
