    • Safeguarding

    All children should have an amazing childhood.

    The Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) is the headteacher, Mrs Sue Ward. Mrs Ward is also the Single Point of contact (SPOC) for any child protection concerns about school staff.

    Mrs Nicola Hall and Mrs Paula Jackson are the Deputy Leads within the school.

    We have a duty to notice if something might be going wrong. If we are worried, we will:

    • Treat you with compassion and respect, mindful of our accountability to statutory safeguarding regulations and our desire to provide excellence for all.

    • Contact you to talk about our concerns and look at how you can be supported. This could be via Early Help or by working with the School Nurse.

    • Seek advice and refer to social services if we are concerned about the safety of any child. If we believe that any child is at immediate risk of harm we will refer to social services without talking to you, this is statutory duty.

    • Keep a confidential record on CPOMS

    Please report any concerns you may have, in confidence to the Headteacher (DSL) or to one of the Deputy Leads in school.

    Our governors have a duty to monitor safeguarding and complete annual checks to help us to keep everyone safe.
