Our Safeguarding Leads
The Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) is the member of staff with lead responsibility for safeguarding and child protection within the school. Their role is to help ensure that all pupils feel safe, supported and protected. The DSL is responsible for responding to safeguarding concerns, keeping appropriate records, working with external agencies where necessary, and ensuring that the school follows its safeguarding and child protection procedures. Deputy Designated Safeguarding Leads (DDSLs) are trained members of staff who support the DSL and can take responsibility for safeguarding matters when required. If a pupil, parent, member of staff or visitor has a concern about the safety or wellbeing of a child, they should report it to the DSL or one of the Deputy DSLs as soon as possible. Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility. If you are concerned about a child, always report it.
