Safeguarding
Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility, and it is amongst the most important things we do. If our pupils do not feel safe, they will not learn.
Our own site specific safeguarding policy can be found below.
If a child is in immediate danger, left alone or missing, you should contact the police and/or ambulance directly by dialling 999.
If there is no immediate danger but you have significant concerns about a child’s welfare, contact the Northamptonshire Multi-Agency Safeguarding Hub (MASH team):
Contact details: 0300 126 7000 (MASH team)
If you are concerned about a child's welfare, please report it.
