The safeguarding of our pupils is of paramount importance. If you have any concerns about safeguarding, you should contact the Designated Senior Person (DSP) for Safeguarding in the school, Mrs Cooke. Our school is part of Operation Encompass which works with the police so we are informed if there is a police incident which one of our children is in attendance. This ensures we can support the child when they arrive in school after an upsetting incident.

Internet Safe Filtering & Monitoring
Filtering: The school has a system provided by the local authority called Fortinet. This will block all traffic that comes through the school’s network, including the school’s wireless, that is classified according to an international classification system as inappropriate. This includes classifications in multi-languages and images, covering a range of material including extremism.
Monitoring: The school monitors internet access by:
– receiving a report on the most blocked websites from school network at least annually, sharing this with WBC ICT to assess the greatest risks/concerns (last review 27/09/16)
– training children to report (Kidsafe programme and E-Safety) and responding to all reports of inappropriate content, informing the LA as necesary (nothing was reportable for last 4 years).
-random reviewing of internet browsing histories
