- promote a culture which makes this school a safer place to learn
- to provide clear guidelines and procedures as to how staff will ensure the safety of all the children

Please take time to look through this website to gain further information about what the academy does to keep pupils safe. You will also find advice and contact details of organisations that can offer safeguarding support. If you cannot find what you are looking for, please contact a member of the safeguarding team.
We believe that children have the right to feel safe and protected from any forms of abuse. We aim to provide a kind, safe and understanding environment where all children can develop their self-esteem and achieve their full potential.
