We recognise our moral and statutory responsibility to safeguard and promote the welfare of all pupils. We endeavour to provide a safe and welcoming environment where children are respected and valued. We are alert to the signs of abuse and neglect and follow our procedures to ensure that children receive effective support, protection and justice. The procedures in place apply to all staff, volunteers and governors and are consistent with those of Sefton Local Safeguarding Children Board (LSCB).
