Safeguarding

The Education Act, 2002 requires Local Authorities and Governing Bodies of maintained schools and institutions to have arrangements for exercising their functions with a view to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children creating and maintaining a safe learning environment.

There are three main elements to our Safeguarding policy:

• prevention through the teaching and pastoral support offered to pupils/students
• procedures for identifying and reporting alleged abuse as school staff are well placed to observe signs of abuse
• support to pupils/students who may have been abused
