Inspiring a better future
Policy
At Breightmet School, we believe in putting the pupil at the centre of our provision, building on their emotional and social development as well as academic achievement.
Breightmet School believes that everyone has the right to live in a safe environment. It is everyone’s responsibility to ensure this right is adhered to. We believe in opening eyes, hearts, and minds. In this context this means encouraging tolerance and acceptance of everyone. Helping children and young people to learn about risk and to be able to embrace opportunities with confidence and realism.
Safeguarding arrangements at Breightmet School are underpinned by three key principles:
Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility: all staff should play their full part in keeping children safe.
Safety: We will aim to protect children using national, and local child protection procedures;
Reporting: That all staff have a clear understanding regarding abuse and neglect in all forms; including how to identify, respond and report.
