We have all statutory safeguarding policies and procedures in place to support this, with regular training and updates for all staff and governors.

The school's Designated Safeguarding Leads are:

Mrs Allyson Buckton: Designated Safeguarding Lead

Mrs Becca Cameron: Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead

Mrs Vicky Goodall: Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead

The Governor responsible for Safeguarding is Miss Elaine Rushworth

The STAR MAT Safeguarding Lead is Cayte Mulhern

The Safeguarding Leads are also supported by the school’s Pastoral Team, led by Mrs Maria Stubbs.

Everyone in our community has the responsibility to act on any concerns that they may have about a child’s well being and safety. 

We work to support families throughout any challenges they may be facing. We can do this within school with the staff who are trained in Thrive or Mental Health First Aid, or we can work with our professional colleagues who can access or signpost services in the medical, mental health or social services departments.

We follow the advice and procedures set out by the North Yorkshire Safeguarding Children Partnership around referrals.  Anyone can make a referral through the website below.
