Safeguarding: Parents
As a school, we are committed to safeguarding pupils at all times. In order to do this, we work in close partnership with parents. 'IN THIS SECTION' of our website, we aim to provide parents / carers with a wealth of useful fact sheets, online links and information in order to support you to keep your child safe.
Below you will find some useful links and documents should you be worried about a child or yourself.
Worried about your own mental health? Being a parent can be challenging, and taking care of your mental health is important. If you need help, you can contact NSPCCs helpline on 0808 800 5000 or email help@nspcc.org.uk
Findaway. Do you know someone who is being controlled, is scared, or being hurt by someone they love? Do you someone who is controlling, scaring or hurting someone they love? Findaway is a new project being supported by the Police and Crime Commissioner’s VRU aimed at supporting friends and families of victims or perpetrators of domestic abuse and providing them with the knowledge and skills they may need to best support their loved ones.
