Safeguarding
Safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people is everyone’s responsibility. Everyone who comes into contact with children and young people and their families and carers has a role to play in safeguarding.
Each member of staff in the Nursery holds a Level 1 Safeguarding qualification and are familiar with the Keeping Children Safe in Education documentation.
Staff know and understand the importance of safeguarding and who to report any worries or concerns to.
Please see our policies page for our child protection and safeguarding policy.

If you think you are being harmed or abused by another student, member of staff or visitor, you should report this as soon as possible to a trusted member of staff.
If this is happening out of school there are other people you can talk to.
