Safeguarding and Wellbeing During the School Changes Due to Covid 19

Our Aim

We recognise the importance of working together to safeguard all children during this unprecedented time

This page is designed to ensure that all students and their parents have information and guidance to ensure that children are kept as safe as possible and have access to support whilst the school is going through changes to routine.

Should you have a concern about the welfare of a young person, you can access support through the usual support routes at school. Our staff are working remotely and continue to offer the support necessary to our students.
