Schools have a vital role in safeguarding, and we take that responsibility very seriously. All our staff are fully trained in safeguarding procedures and understand how to recognise and respond to concerns. We follow robust policies and work in close partnership with parents, carers, and external agencies to ensure every child gets the support they need.
Creating a culture of safety, trust and care is at the core of our school values. If you have any questions or concerns about safeguarding, please don’t hesitate to contact our Designated Safeguarding Lead.
We keep children safe by:
- Having an up-to-date safeguarding/child protection policy: https://www.canonpeterhall.co.uk/policies/safeguarding/
- Check the suitability of all our staff who work with children through stringent checking procedures.
- Have an open-door policy where concerns can be shared in confidence.
- Ensure all our staff have up-to-date child protection and safeguarding training.
- Share information with appropriate agencies if we have concerns.
- Have two identified members of staff who have responsibility for safeguarding.
- Have strong links with e-safety advisors who come into school and work with our children.
