Child Safeguarding

A safe, caring and respectful environment where every student feels protected, listened to and supported.

Child Safeguarding

The safety, protection and wellbeing of every student is a fundamental priority. We are committed to providing a safe, caring and respectful environment where students feel protected, listened to and supported.

Our Safeguarding Framework

Our child safeguarding practices are underpinned by the Children First Act 2015, Children First: National Guidance for the Protection and Welfare of Children 2017, and the Child Protection Procedures for Schools 2025 issued by the Department of Education and Youth. These provide the framework for recognising, responding to and reporting concerns relating to the safety and welfare of children and young people.

Seeking Help & Support

All members of school personnel have a responsibility to contribute to the safeguarding of students and to follow the appropriate procedures where a concern arises. We promote a culture where students know that they can speak to a trusted adult and seek help or support if they are worried about their own safety or the safety of another student.

Safeguarding Policies

Our Child Safeguarding Statement, Child Safeguarding Risk Assessment and Child Protection Policy provide further information on our safeguarding arrangements and are available in the Policy section of our website.
