Bishop’s Hull Primary School is committed to ensuring the safety and wellbeing of all pupils in our school. We believe that all pupils have the right to learn in an environment that caters for their needs, removes barriers and protects them from all types of abuse. Our staff are vigilant and proactive when responding to welfare concerns for our pupils and are trained to use safeguarding and child protection procedures, when required, to keep children safe. If you have a concern, you can speak to any member of staff, or ask for someone from the safeguarding team.
All members of staff are vetted against national safeguarding procedures before being allowed to work in school. At least one member of every interview panel has undertaken safer recruitment training to ensure that best practices and all necessary checks are carried out.
Our E-Safety Co-ordinator is Miss Clare Jennings
