Safeguarding

Safeguarding is about ensuring everyone is safe from harm – safe from bullying, safe from people who could abuse, safe from discrimination or harassment – and that we all feel safe in our environment. We have a number of policies and procedures in place that contribute to our safeguarding commitment, including our child protection policy, which can be viewed in the policies section of our website. The health, safety and wellbeing of every child is our top priority.

We expect all staff, governors and volunteers to share this commitment to safeguarding our pupils.

We aim:

to ensure that children within our school feel safe at all times
to ensure that all stakeholders are safe and feel that they are able to put the welfare of the children first
to ensure that all adults who have contact with children in school have been properly vetted and cleared as suitable to work and support children in our school.
to ensure that all adults who have contact with children in school have been trained to undertake their safeguarding responsibilities effectively.

All school staff have received training in child protection. Children at Cranmore Infants are aware of the adults they can talk to if they have any concerns.

Cranmore Infants Designated Safeguarding Leads are:

Becky Ward: Headteacher

Paula Whittle: Deputy Headteacher

Rebecca Cash: Little Acorns Manager

Kelly Jones: Little Acorns Deputy Manager

These people can be contacted via the school office - office@cranmore.solihull.sch.uk or on 0121 705 3443
