The safeguarding of our pupils is our top priority and staff, volunteers and parents/carers have a responsibility to ensure our children's safety. We strive to ensure there is always a DSL on site so anyone is able to raise a concern, no matter how big or how small. Don't think "What if I'm wrong?" but "What if I'm right?" The concerns you have might form part of a bigger picture which could help prevent harm to a young person. Giving families help at an early stage can help prevent the escalation of safeguarding concerns and we are committed to working with parents/carers and other agencies to do this effectively.
