Safeguarding
SAFEGUARDING AT ST PAUL'S WHITECHAPEL CE PRIMARY SCHOOL
Action taken to promote the welfare of children and protect them from harm is everyone’s responsibility. ‘Everyone who comes into contact with children and their families has a role to play. In order to fulfil this responsibility effectively, all practitioners should make sure their approach is child centred. This means that they should consider, at all times, what is in the best interests of the child.’ Keeping Children safe in Education, September 2022.
The federation schools serve a diverse population including all religions, faiths, cultures, family models and backgrounds. Staff working in our school cannot make assumptions based on their own experience of life to date. They must maintain an open mind whilst being vigilant to what is in the best interests of the child and they must maintain an attitude of ‘it could happen here’ where safeguarding is concerned.
We recognise that no single professional can have a full picture of a child’s needs and circumstances. If children and families are to receive the right help at the right time, everyone who comes into contact with them has a role to play in identifying concerns, sharing information and taking prompt action.
