Safeguarding

Safeguarding is the most important priority for our Trust. All our pupils have the right to be protected from any type of abuse regardless of age, gender, disability, culture, language, religion or sexual identity. This underpins our Trust values ‘Work Hard, Be Kind, Choose Wisely’, and we expect all staff to share this commitment.

The Trust has an overarching Safeguarding and Child Protection Policy to which all of our schools adhere. We have other key policies in place that support safeguarding procedures and expectations, including safer recruitment and managing allegations. These can be found here  

If you have a concern about a child in one of our schools, please report this to the DSL immediately. All concerns will be dealt with in line with our Safeguarding and Child Protection Policy. Contact details for the relevant teams can be found in this policy and on the school websites.
