Safeguarding

Wayfield Primary School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all children entrusted to our care. Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility: all Staff, Governors and Volunteers should play their full part in keeping children safe. At Wayfield Primary School all Staff, Governors and Volunteers feel confident that they can report all matters of safeguarding children in the school where the information will be dealt with swiftly and securely, following the correct procedures with safety and well-being of the children in mind at all times.

We are an Operation Encompass School here at Wayfield Primary School. The aims of the organisation are as follows:

In every force

Our aim is to ensure that schools have timely information about all police-attended incidents of domestic abuse, no matter where in the world the child lives.

In every school

Our aim is to enable staff in every school to understand how to support children who are experiencing domestic abuse, no matter where in the world the child lives.

For every child

Our aim is to ensure all child experiencing domestic abuse receive timely support in their school, no matter where in the world the child lives.
