Safeguarding Documets
We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of our children - ensuring that all children, staff and visitors are safe at all times. Safeguarding children – the action we take to promote the welfare of children and protect them from harm – is everyone’s responsibility. Everyone who comes into contact with children and families has a role to play.
We aim to provide the best possible learning opportunities by having a friendly, healthy and safe environment that caters for and respects all our children’s physical, emotional, social and spiritual needs. In safeguarding children we are committed to ensuring that:
- The child’s needs are paramount;
- All professionals who come into contact with children and families are alert to their needs and any risks of harm (actual or potential) posed to the children;
- All professionals share appropriate information in a timely way and can discuss concerns about an individual child with colleagues and local authority children’s social care;
- High quality professionals are able to use their expert judgement to put the child’s needs at the heart of the safeguarding system so that the right solution can be found for each individual child;
- All professionals contribute to whatever actions are needed to safeguard and promote a child’s welfare and take part in regularly reviewing the outcomes for the child against specific plans and outcomes;
- All safeguarding/child protection policies and procedures follow the Warrington Local Safeguarding Children Board’s Warrington Safeguarding Partnership guidance and DfE guidance (Working Together to Safeguard Children 2018; Keeping Children Safe in Education, 2023)
