Irthington Village School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare and well-being of all its pupils, engages with young people and staff in policy and practice developments, proactively encourages feedback and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
Safeguarding at Irthington Village School is first and foremost at the centre of our school and our local community. We pay due diligence to ensuring all pupils are safe and secure within our school. We work with families to maintain strong positive links and develop every aspect of a child's life.
Staff are very vigilant and have professional curiosity towards keeping children safe. Training for staff in relation to safeguarding is a priority and refreshed on a regular basis. All staff members complete annual Level 1 safeguarding and the members of our safeguarding have Level 2 and Level 3 training.
All those working at Irthington Village School will contribute to the safeguarding and protection of the welfare of a child in need by:
- protecting children from maltreatment
- preventing impairment of children’s mental and physical health or development
- ensuring children are growing up in circumstances consistent with the provision of safe and effective care
- taking action to enable all children to have the best outcomes.
We, at Irthington Village School, offer your child a safe, happy, nurturing environment, where children's wellbeing and safety are at the forefront.
