Safeguarding
'The adults in school keep us safe'. Olivia
Our Academy is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people.
We expect all staff, visitors, volunteers and parents/carers to share this commitment.
If you have ANY concerns - however small you think they are - please fulfil your care of duty to the child or family in question and tell us.
Safeguarding our children is our highest priority.
