Safeguarding
Keeping children safe is a high priority for our whole school community. We strive to keep everyone safe while they are in school and within our curriculum we teach a range of age-appropriate skills to help children keep themselves safe in a variety of contexts.
We are very keen to work in partnership with parents and carers in this important area. As well as the information listed below, we hold regular coffee mornings and information meetings to discuss issues such as e-safety and health issues. Look out for more information in our newsletter and our Facebook page.
We will update this page over time so please let us know if there is anything that you feel we should include.
