Safeguarding is taking action to improve the safety and opportunities for children and adults, making sure they can lead a life free from harm and abuse.
There are lots we do to help keep you safe. Here are just some of them:
We have a safeguarding policy. This policy explains how young people might be harmed, the signs to look for and what staff should do;
We have other policies that provide information for staff and students about things like anti-bullying and internet and e-safety;
All staff go through a check to assess their suitability to work with young people;
All staff are trained to recognise the signs of abuse and neglect and know what to do if they are concerned about a learner’s welfare;
We encourage learners to tell us when something is wrong;
We respect all learners as individuals and we don’t tolerate discrimination of any kind;
We give learners information to help them keep safe and provide monthly “Talking Points” sessions to discuss current issues;
We carry out risk assessments to test whether any activity is going to be safe for learners;
We have a health and safety policy that covers such things as fire regulations, first-aid, food safety and in ensuring our premises are safe for everyone;
Our Designated Safeguarding Leads have received special training in protecting young people from abuse and neglect and they make sure the safeguarding procedures are followed;
We work in partnership with parents and carers to keep you safe and provide them with information too;
If necessary, we talk to other people such as social workers and police officers if we think a learner has been harmed or might be harmed.
