Safeguarding

At Meonstoke Cof E School keeping children safe is our main priority. It is recognised that all staff play a key role in safeguarding pupils and in the prevention of harm, early identification, intervention and support for pupils at risk of harm. We aim to create an environment where children are safe, valued and know that their concerns will be taken seriously. The vision, aims and ethos of the school all support this intention to ensure the safety and security of children in our care.

We follow policies and procedures outlined by  the DfE and Hampshire Safeguarding Children Board to ensure all children are safeguarded. Our Safeguarding/Child Protection Policy is updated annually and all staff receive regular safeguarding training. See our policies page.

Key DfE documents and guidance which underpin our practice are:
