Safeguarding
At school, our DSLs (Designated Safeguarding Leads) are highly trained to manage any concerns that may occur. All concerns raised are investigated by our DSLs thoroughly. Should a risk be deemed of high concern, DSLs will refer the concern to the appropriate agencies to ensure children and families access the support needed.

When a safeguarding or child protection concern is reported to the safeguarding team a record of this concern is kept on file. These records are stored securely and confidentially with restricted access.
Parents and carers are almost always informed of any concerns arising, unless to do so would increase the risk of harm to the child or there is information to suggest that a criminal offence has been committed.
In these instances, we will consult with Nottingham City Multi Agency safeguarding Hub in the first instance to seek advice. We will work with a Local Authority Designated Officer (LADO).
When a child transfers to a new school, this information transfers as well, separate to academic information and confidentially.
Please do not hesitate to contact the school if you require any further information or have any safeguarding concerns:
