Safeguarding

There is a whole school approach to ensure that all Young People have the right to access school feeling safe and free of:

• Bullying

• Abuse including; physical, emotional, sexual and child on child

• Neglect

• Radicalisation

Staff receive safeguarding training and refreshers which encourage them to recognise and report concerns to the schools Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL).

The Young Person is also encouraged to recognise their roles and responsibilities in staying safe when using the internet and within friendships and relationships.

If you have any concerns or questions regarding safeguarding at Wolfdale School, you can contact us at dsl@wolfdaleschool.leics.sch.uk

“Operation Encompass is a police and education early information safeguarding partnership enabling schools to offer immediate support to children experiencing domestic abuse.

Operation Encompass ensures that there is a phone call or notification to a school’s trained Designated Safeguarding Lead (the Key Adult) prior to the start of the next school day after an incident of police attended domestic abuse where there are children related to either of the adult parties involved.

Information is shared with a school’s Key Adult prior to the start of the next school day after officers have attended a domestic abuse incident. This sharing of information enables appropriate support to be given, dependent upon the needs and wishes of the child.”
