Safeguarding

Tickenham Church of England Primary School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. We expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.

We do this through five key elements:

• Establishing a safe environment in which children can learn and develop
• Ensuring we practise safer recruitment by checking the suitability of staff and volunteers to work with children
• Raising awareness of safeguarding issues and equipping children with the skills they need to keep themselves safe
• Developing and implementing procedures for identifying and reporting cases, or suspected cases, of abuse and allegations against teachers and other members of staff
• Supporting pupils who have been abused in accordance with a Child Protection Plan

Key staff

• Designated Safeguarding Lead: Katie Carter
• Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead: Polly Youngs
• Safeguarding Governor: Andy Duncan
