Safeguarding
At Paget Primary School we take the safety and wellbeing of the children in our school very seriously and we expect all staff, volunteers, governors and parents to do the same.
We have a Safeguarding and Child Protection Policy which is available on our Policies and Documents page, together with other policies which affect the wellbeing of children, such as Behaviour, Anti-Bullying, E-safety and Children Collected Late.
We follow the Safer Recruitment Policy and the Department of Education guidance Keeping Children Safe in Education 2024
We also are part of Operation Encompass – a police and education early intervention safeguarding partnership that supports children exposed to domestic abuse.
We follow data protection and confidentiality policies.
We have a Health and Safety Policy for the practical protection of children and staff and regular walk rounds to inspect the site are conducted by the Site Manager, Governors and Leadership teams.
All staff receive extensive Child Protection (CP) training and Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) clearance appropriate to their position in school.
