Safeguarding is everyone's responsibility. We are required to have robust procedures in place to protect children from harm, promote their welfare and ensure they feel safe, supported and listened to.

Schools have a duty to teach pupils how to stay safe online and to protect them from online risks, including inappropriate content, cyberbullying and harmful technologies.
Health and Safety
We are required to provide a safe and secure environment for pupils, staff and visitors, including appropriate risk assessments, emergency procedures and site safety measures.
We support pupils with medical conditions and work closely with families and health professionals to ensure appropriate care plans and support arrangements are in place.
We take allergies seriously and have procedures in place to support pupils and staff with allergies, including staff training, dietary management and individual healthcare plans where required.
Behaviour and Inclusion
Schools are required to promote positive behaviour, prevent bullying and provide an environment where pupils feel respected, included and able to learn successfully.
Careers Education and Preparation for Adulthood
We provide impartial careers education, employability experiences and preparation for adulthood opportunities to help pupils develop the knowledge, skills and confidence needed for their future.
Mental Health and Wellbeing
We promote positive mental health and wellbeing across the school community and ensure pupils can access appropriate support when needed.
We have a clear complaints procedure to ensure any concerns raised by parents, carers or members of the public are dealt with fairly, transparently and promptly.
