“Safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children is defined for the purposes of this guidance as: protecting children from maltreatment; preventing impairment of children’s mental and physical health or development; ensuring that children grow up in circumstances consistent with the provision of safe and effective care; and taking action to enable all children to have the best outcomes.” - KCSIE
At Nottage we committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of our children.
We have a number of policies and procedures in place that contribute to our safeguarding commitment, including our Child Protection Policy.
If you have any worries or concerns you can contact: any of our Safeguarding team below, any member of staff or contact the school.
