Safeguarding Overview

At Auriol Junior School we recognise our moral and statutory responsibility to safeguard and promote the welfare of all children.

We make every effort to provide an environment in which children and adults feel safe, secure, valued and respected and we believe that it is 'everyone's responsibility to safeguard children'.  We do our best to create a culture where children and staff feel confident to share any concerns they may have, in the knowledge that they will be listened to and their concerns will be taken seriously.

The purpose of our Child Protection Policy & Procedures, which can be found in our policies section, is to provide staff, volunteers and governors with the framework they need in order to keep children safe and secure in our school. The policy also informs parents and carers how we will safeguard their children whilst they are in our care.
