Safeguarding at SPJS

“THE WELFARE OF THE CHILD IS PARAMOUNT.”

We are fully committed to safeguarding our pupils and staff. Child Protection is everybody’s business and together we want to ensure that our children are safe, happy and secure at all times. If you have any concerns about your own, or another child, please do not hesitate to contact one of the Designated Safeguarding Leads below.

We take notice of and adhere to all the national and local policies and guidance in regard to Safeguarding Children and Young People.

Safeguarding is summarised as:

protecting children from abuse and maltreatment
preventing harm to children’s health or development
making sure that children grow up with provision of dafe and effective care
taking action to enable all children have the best outcomes.

At SPJS we believe that our safeguarding systems and processes are efficient in acting responsively to arising issues and proactively to avoid others arising. We work closely with external safeguarding agencies and reflect on our own practices constantly and rigorously as well as seeking guidance and feedback from all stakeholders.

Our Safeguarding & Child Protection Policy can be found on our policy page along with other relevant policies such as our: Behaviour Policy, Anti Bullying Policy, E-Safety etc.
