Safeguarding

• creating a safe environment for children and young people through robust safeguarding practices;
• ensuring that adults who work in school, including volunteers, are able to work with children safely, and are properly trained and equipped to do so;
• teaching children and young people to stay safe; and
• maintaining an environment in which children feel confident to approach any member of staff if they have a worry or problem.

As part of our safeguarding delivery, Wyndham Spencer Academy follows the procedures set out by the Derbyshire Safeguarding Children Board in the Derby and Derbyshire Safeguarding Procedures (www.derbyshirescb.org.uk) and take account of guidance issued by the Department for Children, Schools and Families (in particular Safeguarding Children and Safer Recruitment in Education 2007).
