Safeguarding

Keeping Ourselves Safe (Safeguarding)

At Glebe Farm School, Safeguarding and Child Protection is paramount and we are fully committed to ensuring the welfare and safety of all our children and expect all staff and volunteers share this commitment.

We believe that all pupils have a right to learn in a supportive, caring and safe environment which includes the right to protection from all types of abuse; where staff are vigilant for signs of any pupil in distress and are confident about applying the processes to avert and alleviate any such problems.

Our key aims are to ensure;

• All of our pupils are safe and protected from harm,
• Other elements of provision and policies are in place to enable pupils to feel safe and adopt safe practices;
• Staff, pupils, governors, visitors, volunteers and parents are aware of the expected behaviours and the school’s legal responsibilities in relation to the safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all of our pupils.

We believe that Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility and as such, our school aims to create the safest environment within which every pupil has the opportunity to strive and reach their full potential.   We recognise the importance of us ensuring our pupils know how to seek support, feel that they will be listened to and appropriate action is taken. We want everyone to feel safe and secure.
