Safeguarding

Our Lady of Mount Carmel Catholic Primary School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children.

All staff, governors, external coaches and volunteers are fully aware of the School’s safeguarding policies and share this commitment.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. We expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Our school is a safe place for children, where our responsibilities for safeguarding children are taken seriously.

Our policies and agreed practices for child protection, health and safety, behaviour management, attendance and looked after children all comply with the recommendations for safeguarding children at school. We have trained designated safeguarding leaders with responsibility for child safeguarding at the school.

There is a strong anti-bullying ethos evident throughout the school. We teach our children how to recognise bullying, how to keep themselves safe from bullying behaviour and how to report it.
