Safeguarding
We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of our children and expect all our staff, volunteers and visitors to share in this commitment.
All staff have annual safeguarding training in September at the start of a new academc year.
Sometimes we may need to share information and work in partnership with other agencies where there are concerns about a child’s welfare. We will ensure that our concerns about our pupils are discussed with his/her parents/carers first unless we have reason to believe that such a move would be contrary to the child’s welfare.
Our Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) and Deputy Designated Safeguarding Leads (DDSL) are:
| Mrs Rebello, Headteacher, Designated Safeguarding Lead |
| Mrs Nicholls, Deputy Headteacher, Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead |
| Miss Robinson, Reception Teacher, Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead |
| Mrs Simister, SENDCo & Inclusion, Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead |
Our safeguarding policy can be found within our school policies section (within Key information).

As part of Audley Primary School’s commitment to safeguarding and child protection we fully support the government’s Prevent Strategy, and take guidance from Teaching Approaches to help build resilience to extremism.
What is the Prevent Strategy?
The Prevent Strategy is a government strategy designed to stop people becoming terrorists or supporting terrorism:
- It responds to the ideological challenge we face from terrorism and aspects of terrorism, and the threat we face from those who promote these views
- It provides practical help to prevent people from being drawn into terrorism and ensure they are given appropriate advice and support
- It works with a wide range of sectors (including education, criminal justice, faith, charities, online and health)
At Audley Primary School we ensure that we teach the children about the Prevent Aims. This is done through quality circle time and PSHE activities. In each year group we teach our children to be safe and recognise the possible dangers they may face. Teachers make sure that this is done in a sensitive and age appropriate way.
We also protect children from the risk of radicalisation, for example by using filters on the internet to make sure they can’t access unsuitable material, and by vetting visitors who come into school to work with pupils.
