We all have a statutory duty to safeguard and promote the welfare of children.

Sharing Concerns
If you have any concerns about a scholar, you must share this information.
General concerns regarding behaviour, appearance or hygiene are important and should be passed on. Do not worry about reporting small matters. We would rather you tell us something small than miss a worrying situation.
If you think that a scholar or a member of their family has been or could be harmed in any way, for example, physical, emotional or sexual abuse or neglect, you must find a member of the Safeguarding Team and make them aware immediately.
If you are unable to locate them, ask a member of the school office staff to find them and to ask them to speak with you immediately about an urgent safeguarding matter.
