Safeguarding

Prevent

All schools must also have a member of staff who is the Prevent Lead. This person must complete the Prevent training and have a secure understanding of this area of safeguarding. At our school, Mrs Kellie Rainford, Headteacher, is the Prevent Lead.

Safer Recruitment

When recruiting new members of staff, at least one member of the interviewing committee must be Safer Recruitment trained. At our school, both Mrs Kellie Rainford, Headteacher and Mr Wayne Steel, Chair of Governors are safer recruitment trained.

How we record Safeguarding Concerns

As a school, we record all safeguarding concerns using an electronic system called Child Protection and Safeguarding Management System known as CPOMs. This enables our school to maintain accurate records and share them, securely, with those responsible for safeguarding in our school.

Attendance

Good attendance at school ensures children make the best academic and social progress. To ensure good attendance for all children, we have specific procedures in place to ensure this is the case; this is part of our wider safeguarding work.
