Safeguarding

Marlborough Primary School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the well-being of all children and expects our staff and volunteers to share this commitment.

 

NOTICE – CHECK – SHARE

 

Safeguarding children means keeping them safe from neglect and abuse. If we feel a child has a need or requires support, we will contact CASS (Children's Advice and Support Service)'.Anyone who comes into contact with children and families has a responsibility to safeguard and promote their welfare. This means:

 

    ● Protecting children from maltreatment;

    ● Preventing impairment of children’s health or development;

    ● Ensuring children are growing in circumstances consistent with the provision of safe and effective care

    ● Taking action to enable all children to have the best life chances

 

Are you a Parent or Guardian?  Protecting children is your responsibility too...
