What is Safeguarding?

Safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children is defined as: protecting children from maltreatment: preventing impairment of children’s health or development: ensuring that children grow up in circumstances consistent with the provision of safe and effective care: and taking action to enable all children to have the best outcomes.

Cleobury Mortimer Primary School is committed to the promotion of equal opportunities and diversity. It is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. The completion of an Enhanced DBS will be required for anyone working with children in our school.
