OUR COMMITMENT TO SAFEGUARDING & CHILD PROTECTION

This school is committed to safeguard all pupils and protect children from all forms of harm or abuse.

As part of our commitment we:

• Have 3 specially trained designated staff for child protection: They can all be contacted on 9149779 or via email: head@greythorn.notts.sch.uk; sarah.cox@greythorn.notts.sch.uk; pam.parkin@greythorn.notts.sch.uk 
• Ensure all visitors or volunteers sign in at the office and agree to abide by our code of conduct.
• Ensure all staff, governors, visitors or volunteers have a current DBS check if they are working with children by themselves. This is always verified before the person starts work.
• Have a duty to inform the Multi Agency Safeguarding Hub if we have any suspicions of abuse or neglect in any way.
• Have an up to date policy for Safeguarding & Child Protection (A copy of which can be found on our website or obtained from reception)
• Ensure all staff have at least annual refresher training to update their knowledge of policies and procedures.

If you have any concerns about a child’s welfare or safety, please report it immediately to a member of staff.

Thank you for helping to keep our young people safe.
