We are committed to providing the highest standards in relation to the safeguarding of the children and young people entrusted to our care.
We support all pupils by:
- Providing a caring, safe, and positive environment within the school
- Encouraging communication, self-esteem, and self-assertiveness
- Effectively tackling bullying and harassment
- Promoting all aspects of the Equality Act 2010
- Training all staff in Child Protection and Safeguarding to the appropriate level and ensuring they are aware of safeguarding procedures within our school
- Providing the infrastructure for effective reporting, record keeping, and working in partnership
We expect all staff and visitors to our school to behave in a way which ensures our children and young people are safeguarded at all times. This includes a duty for any safeguarding concerns to be reported to the Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) or Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead (DDSL).
Designated Safeguarding Lead: Gillian Rolfe, Assistant Headteacher
Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead: Sarah Hatherall-Good, Headteacher & Melanie Parkin, Deputy Headteacher
Email: safeguarding@castlegardenschool.co.uk
All staff at Castle Garden School are here to keep you safe.
These people are Designated Safeguarding Leads (DSLs) and they make sure that all pupils, staff and visitors are safe.
You can talk to them, or any of the staff, if you are feeling worried about anything.
