Safeguarding

All staff working in schools have a duty to provide a safe and secure environment in which children can learn.   At Hillside Infant School we provide this environment by:

  • Ensuring that every child is aware of his/her right to be safe.
  • Ensuring that the staff responsible for safeguarding receive appropriate training and that this training is updated regularly.
  • Ensuring that we follow the statutory guidance in the DfE publication “Keeping Children Safe in Education”.
  • Ensuring that we follow the recommendations in the document entitled “Guidance for Safer Working Practices”.
  • Following Safer Recruitment guidelines when appointing staff.
  • Providing safeguarding training as part of induction for all staff.
  • Ensuring that all relevant checks are carried out on all adults who have contact with children.
  • Providing safeguarding training for all staff every year.
  • Ensuring that all staff have carried out online Prevent training.
