Our Safeguarding Governor is Helen Seear.

Helen leads safeguarding on behalf of our governing body. Part of Helen’s role is to challenge our procedures and policies, ensuring that we are effectively safeguarding all of our pupils.

At School, we have a Single Central Record (SCR) to ensure all staff and volunteers have the required checks and certificates. Our Single Central Record Manager is Steve Hugo (Executive Business Manager). He keeps this record updated and ensures all of the necessary qualifications and documents are in place.
