Child Protection & Safeguarding
Our Safeguarding Approach
At Millbrook Primary School and Nursery, safeguarding is at the heart of everything we do. We are committed to providing a safe, caring and inclusive environment where every child feels valued, supported and protected. We work closely with children, families and external agencies to identify concerns early and provide the right help at the right time. We recognise that some children may be more vulnerable due to factors such as special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), language barriers, family circumstances, attendance concerns, mental health needs or online risks. Through strong partnerships, clear reporting procedures, preventative education, regular staff training and ongoing support for families, we strive to ensure that every child is safe, able to thrive and encouraged to speak up if they have any worries. We regularly review our safeguarding practice and listen to feedback from pupils and parents to ensure we continue to meet the needs of our school community and provide the highest standards of care and protection.
This policy will be flexible to change and will be reviewed on an ongoing basis to reflect where there are any changes in government legislation or any changes in the duty of statutory agencies in child protection and/or the wider safeguarding agenda. If it is not appropriate to refine the policy during the year, then this will be done as a matter of course on yearly basis by a named person responsible below, who shall be accountable for that action.
