Safeguarding

The Isle of Wight Safeguarding Partnership shares resources for families and schools to use to safeguard children.  Their website has a range of resources to support families in keeping their children safe.

In school all staff are trained annually to keep children safe.  This includes Prevent training.  Prevent is the Government strategy which identifies when people are at risk of being radicalized, causing risk to the community as well as the individuals themselves.  

The school has a safeguarding policy which shares with families what safeguarding processes are in place.  You will also see in the school building posters that explain who the Designated Safeguarding Leader and deputies are.  If you have any concerns about children please let staff know.

Everyone is responsible for safeguarding.

Governors and staff regularly discuss safeguarding scenarios so that we are keeping our training up to date.  No-one likes to think that any child is hurt but we know that this happens.  At St Saviour's it is up to us as a community to always have the understanding that this is a possibility and so we have to ask those challenging questions.
