Keeping our children safe is our number one priority

Safeguarding arrangements at All Saints' CE Federation of schools is underpinned by three key principles:

1. Safeguarding is everyone's responsibility: all staff, governors and volunteers play their full part in keeping our children safe.

All of our staff, governors, students and volunteers are well trained and receive a thorough induction. Records of this are retained by All Saints'.

You can view details of our safeguarding training, including in year training and updates, on the 'Safeguarding Training' page.

2. All Saints' Federation of schools operates a child-centred approach: a clear understanding of the needs, wishes, views and voices of children.

We ask our children, and parents, about safeguarding and use the responses to further shape our provision.

3. All staff, governors and volunteers have a clear understanding regarding abuse and neglect in all forms; including how to identify, respond and report. This also includes knowledge in the process for allegations against professionals.  

Governors closely oversee safeguarding practices at All Saints' and monitor the annual S175 Safeguarding audit which the federation of schools undertakes. An update is provided to All Saints' governors on a termly basis.

Our lead governor for safeguarding is: Catherine Harris
