Safeguarding Statement
The School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
Candidates will be required to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers, the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS), Prohibition from Teaching Checks, and Prohibition from Management Checks.
The safeguarding responsibilities of the post include:

* Fostering a culture of openness, safety, equality and protection
* Providing a safe and welcoming environment where both children and adults feel secure, able to talk and believe that they are being listened to
