Safeguarding and Child Protection

All staff have a responsibility to be aware of any signs of child abuse. This includes neglect, physical abuse, sexual abuse and emotional abuse. In line with National and Milton Keynes Council guidelines, any concerns will be referred to the Multi Agency Safeguarding Hub (MASH). We recognise our responsibility towards the safety and wellbeing of all children that we come into contact with. Any adult concerned about the wellbeing of a child outside school, should similarly consider contacting the MASH to discuss their concerns. The designated teacher responsible for child protection is Debbie Williamson.

Contact number for the MASH: 01908 253169

Online Safety

Online safety is an important element of safeguarding at our school. We have extensive security measures in place in school to help safeguard pupils from potential dangers or unsuitable material.  Online safety is taught to all pupils explaining and demonstrating how to stay safe and behave appropriately online.

We encourage parents and carers to talk to their children about how to behave safely when online, to ensure pupils remain safe when browsing at home. This section of our website aims to provide both parents and children with links to really useful advice on how to be safe when using the internet.

Parents/carers, teachers or anyone supporting the learning of children today need to ensure they are up-to-date with new technologies and actively look for resources to help ensure that children are using technology, including the internet, safely.
