The welfare and safety of children who attend our school is our paramount concern. We promote the health, well-being and safety of the pupils in all we do.
Our children have the right to protection, regardless of age, gender, race, culture or disability. They have a right to be safe in our school. The staff at Newcomen Primary School have a duty to report any concerns that they may have that any child may be at risk from significant harm or may be suffering significant harm, particularly as a consequence of possible abuse. All adults working with or on behalf of children have a responsibility to safeguard and promote the welfare of children.
All staff at Newcomen Primary School we have a Safeguarding Team which consists of:
- Designated Safeguarding Lead and Primary School Representative on Local Safeguarding Children’s Board Miss K Pusztai (Head Teacher)
- Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead Mr E Jones ( Deputy Head Teacher)
- Designated Governor for Safeguarding : Mr B Greenwood ( Vice Chair of Governors).
