SAFEGUARDING (CHILD PROTECTION)

The Charter Schools Educational Trust is committed across all its schools, including The Belham, to providing a safe and secure environment for children, staff and visitors and to promoting a culture in which everyone feels confident about sharing any and all concerns they may have about their own safety and wellbeing, or the safety and wellbeing of others.  
 
Our aim is to safeguard and promote the welfare of children by protecting them 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 robust action to enable all children to have the best outcomes possible.
