Safeguarding and Child Protection

Holy Trinity School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff and visitors to share this commitment.

The school community will take all reasonable steps to ensure that children feel healthy and safe and are protected from any maltreatment in order that they can enjoy their education, achieve and have optimum life chances to enter adulthood successfully.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff, pupils and volunteers to share this commitment. It is the duty of care for the school to make sure all our children feel safe and happy and is underpinned through our vision and values.

All staff are trained in safeguarding when they join the school and this training is updated annually or sooner if necessary. The training ensures staff are aware of the signs to look out for if a child may be being harmed/abused. It also informs them how to deal with the situation and report it appropriately. Similarly, children are reminded that they can share information with staff who will always be there to listen and support them.

Sometimes we may need to share information and work in partnership with other agencies when there are concerns about a child's welfare. We endeavour to discuss our concerns about our pupils with his/her parents/carers first unless we have reason to believe that such a move may have an impact on the children in our care. 

We actively support the Government's Prevent Agenda to counter radicalism and extremism and all stakeholders have received training in this as well. The Governor responsible for Safeguarding is Christine Edwards.
