Safeguarding means:
- Protecting children from maltreatment
- Preventing impairment of children’s health or development

The school adheres to the following three DFE safeguarding documents:
All staff receive regular Child Protection and Safeguarding training and are aware of the procedures for passing on concerns within the school. If any members of the school or local community have concerns about the welfare of a child in the school, please pass them on to the School Safeguarding Team.
