At Laxton Junior School, we believe everyone who comes into contact with children and their families has a role to play in ensuring that children’s welfare and safeguarding are a top priority. To fulfil this responsibility effectively, we ensure that our approach to safeguarding, child protection, and social, emotional, and academic learning is child-centred. This means that, at all times, we consider what is in the best interests of our children.
“We prioritise the safety and well-being of every child. Our safeguarding practices are robust, regularly reviewed, and deeply embedded in our school culture. We work collaboratively with staff, parents, and external agencies to ensure that all pupils feel safe, supported, and empowered to thrive.”Stacey Crump, Designated Safeguarding Lead
Our Designated Safeguarding Team (consisting of the Designated Safeguarding Lead and the Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead), alongside every member of our community, is in a privileged position to learn and work together to ensure that any child, staff member, parent, carer, or family needing guidance, support, help, or protection receives high-quality and effective action as soon as this is identified.
