Child Protection and Safeguarding Policy
The safety of our students is our number one priority. As we all know, the risks in modern society are varied and constantly changing and we cannot remove these, so we all need to help educate children in ways to keep themselves safe.
As part of safeguarding the pupils of Brantridge School we will ensure that no political is promoted. If political views are discussed as part of the school curriculum we will ensure this is a balanced discussion.
Brantridge School want to make sure that pupils at our school are as suicide-safe as possible and ensure that our parents and carers, staff, governors and trustees, and other key partners are aware of our commitment to be suicide-safe.
