Safeguarding Information
The Raleigh Education Trust (the “Trust”) is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and we expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Creating a culture of safety and vigilance for our pupils is of paramount importance, we aim to:
(a) create and maintain a safe environment
(b) manage situations should child welfare concerns arise
(c) create an atmosphere of trust in which pupils feel confident to confide any concern
(d) help young people to understand the difference between acceptable and non - acceptable behaviour
(e) teach pupils to stay safe from harm
Pupils are taught about safeguarding, including E-safety as part of a broad and balanced curriculum. All staff within the Trust take welfare concerns seriously and encourage children and young people to talk about anything that worries them.
