Safeguarding
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.
