Safeguarding

 

Please read our Safeguarding Policy.  If you have any Safeguarding concerns please inform Mrs Richardson or Mrs McKeen as a matter of urgency.  Alternately you can contact Sefton Multi Agency Safeguarding helpline  directly on 0151 934 339.  Safeguarding is a community responsibility and as such we all have a responsibility to keep children safe. 


Key DFE publications  include

  • Keeping children Safe in Education (September 2023)
  • Disqualification by Association
  • Prevent Strategy
  • Working together to Safeguard Children 
  • Valuing all God’s Children
  • Sexual harassment and violence in schools and colleges

 

All staff training for safeguarding is up to date and regularly updated in line with Government Guidelines.  Records of staff training are held in the school office. 


Home Office Prevent Training updates for all staff, including Non Teaching Staff  and Governors takes place regularly.  

 

Regular Fire Drills and Lock Down practises take place in line with statutory duties. 

 

We have 2 members of staff and 1 governor currently trained in Safer Recruitment.

CPOMS

CPOMS is the market leading software application for monitoring child protection, safeguarding and a whole range of pastoral and welfare issues. Working alongside a school’s existing safeguarding processes, CPOMS is an intuitive system to help with the management and recording of child protection, behavioural issues, bullying, special educational needs, domestic issues and much more.

Using CPOMS, schools can ensure that pupils are safe and fully supported, whilst school staff can focus on teaching and providing support, instead of administration.

Every member of staff across school has an obligation to report any concerns which they may have. CPOMS allows them to record information in a central repository and have relevant people alerted immediately.
