We have the greatest respect for our Safeguarding responsibility. School staff play an essential role in safeguarding our pupils. 

We:

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

We have a number of Safeguarding officers in school identified above but ALL our staff share our responsibility and have received safeguarding training to help support children who may be at risk.
