Safeguarding Leads Poster – January 2019

 

If you are worried about a child, in addition to the school’s Safeguarding Team, important contacts are:

If you think that a child is in immediate danger, please ring 999 and speak to the police.

​If you suspect that any child or young person is being abused or neglected, or you are otherwise concerned about their welfare or well-being, please get in touch with the Multi Agency Safeguarding Hub​ immediately.

  • E-mail: Swindonmash@swindon.gov.uk
  • Telephone: 01793 466903 (during normal office hours which are 8.30am to 4.40pm Monday to Thursday, and 8.30am to 4.00pm Friday)
  • The Emergency Duty Service (EDS) is available outside office hours on 01793 436699

 

Our Safeguarding culture is summarised in the following ways:-

  • We ensure that full discussion of the school’s Safeguarding & Child Protection Policy is included in the induction of all new members of staff and volunteers to ensure that there is common understanding and to maintain a safe culture at the forefront of staff consciousness.
  • We have five fully-trained Designated Safeguarding Leads. These staff are the Headteacher, Deputy Headteacher, Safeguarding & Partnership Officer, Transfer & Inclusion Co-ordinator, and Alternative Provision Leader.  Members of the Senior Leadership Team have also completed the DCSF accredited Safer Recruitment Training.
  • All staff at Lawn Manor Academy read and sign the ‘Keeping Children Safe in Education – Part 1 (2021)’ document.
  • All staff receive Child Protection & Safeguarding training as a minimum every three years, with regular updates or briefings on a termly basis; Designated Safeguarding Leads receive higher level training as a minimum every two years.
  • Our school policy encourages all staff to raise any concerns they may have about pupils; the interests of the young person are paramount and take priority over professional loyalties.
  • Supply agency staff are made aware of the school’s safeguarding procedures and are provided with a written leaflet outlining this; visitors to the school are also provided with written procedures upon arrival at reception.
  • Our staff selection and interview process will rigorously assess all candidates’ suitability and their commitment to safeguarding children.
  • Lawn Manor Academy commissions an annual external review of Safeguarding from a leading consultant.
  • We are all expected to share any concerns we have about staff conduct around children with the Headteacher. As in all schools, if there are concerns about the conduct of the Headteacher, then these should be shared with the Chair of Governors. The staff ‘Whistleblowing Policy’ has been discussed and adopted and all staff have access to this document.
  • In addition to their I LEARN Tutors, pupils have pastoral support from their Year Leaders. Pupils can also access the support of a School Health Nurse.
  • Please Note: There may be occasions when our concern about a child means that we have to consult other agencies before we contact parents.
  • We also follow the Swindon Safeguarding Partnership and have systems in place to share concerns regarding children’s welfare with our Designated Safeguarding Leads, with parents and with relevant external agencies. Part of our legal duty to safeguard our children, may also include us needing to consult specifically with and take advice from, the Police or Children’s Social Care, should the need arise.
  • By working closely together as a staff and with our partner agencies, we firmly believe that we will continue to offer a safe learning environment for all our children.

Please take the time to read our policies and do not hesitate to contact the school should you have any questions.

  • Child Sexual Exploitation – Parents and pupils may find the Swindon Borough Council Website useful for more information about CSE:  www.swindon.gov.uk/cse
  • Child Protection Policy– this can be found in the Policy area of the school website.

Internet/Electronic Safety

As the school increasingly uses online learning platforms, particularly as part of the contingency planning in the event of partial or whole school closure during the Coronavirus pandemic, the follow sites may be particularly useful to parents/carers in helping keep their children safe online:

  • Thinkuknow provides advice from the National Crime Agency (NCA) on staying safe online
  • Parent info is a collaboration between Parentzone and the NCA providing support and guidance for parents from leading experts and organisations
  • Childnet offers a toolkit to support parents and carers of children of any age to start discussions about their online life, to set boundaries around online behaviour and technology use, and to find out where to get more help and support
  • Internet matters provides age-specific online safety checklists, guides on how to set parental controls on a range of devices, and a host of practical tips to help children get the most out of their digital world
  • London Grid for Learning has support for parents and carers to keep their children safe online, including tips to keep primary aged children safe online
  • Net-aware has support for parents and carers from the NSPCC, including a guide to social networks, apps and games
  • Let’s Talk About It has advice for parents and carers to keep children safe from online radicalisation
  • UK Safer Internet Centre has tips, advice, guides and other resources to help keep children safe online, including parental controls offered by home internet providers and safety tools on social networks and other online services
