Safeguarding is about keeping everyone safe from harm, abuse and neglect. In this video, we’ll explain:
- What safeguarding means and why it matters in our school community.
- Signs to look out for – changes in behaviour, unexplained injuries, or anything that makes you feel uneasy.
- When to speak to someone – if you’re worried about a child or young person, don’t wait. Talk to a trusted adult or your school’s Designated Safeguarding Lead (Mr Antonious).
- What Early Help is – support for families before problems escalate, offering guidance and practical help at the right time.
