Keeping your child safe

As a school, our priority is to keep your child safe and healthy. Under the OFSTED framework safeguarding is a key indicator of what constitutes a good school. Keeping your child safe means:

  • Providing first aid.
  • Caring for children’s personal needs.
  • Ensuring our school is secure and safe.
  • Ensuring the children know who to speak to if they have a problem.
  • Ensuring all adults who work in school have undergone safety and security checks.

Before school

Parents and carers are responsible for children until they enter the school gates from 8:45.

During school hours

We follow clear rules about behaviour and use of play equipment in the playground. Adults supervise the children to ensure every playtime is a happy and safe one for all children. If children hurt themselves staff are First Aid trained and will deal with the injury promptly and accordingly. 

After school

Parents and carers are responsible for children in the playground after the teacher dismisses. Dogs are NOT permitted on school premises, unless they are guide dogs.  Please do not leave dogs unattended anywhere near or on the school premises. Thank you.
