St Luke’s
Safeguarding
‘The arrangements for safeguarding are effective. The designated safeguarding lead is vigilant in his oversight of any child protection issues. Records of any safeguarding concerns are of high quality and detailed. Staff receive suitable safeguarding training and so they are able to recognise the signs when pupils’ welfare may be at risk. Senior leaders ensure that all the necessary checks on staff are carried out thoroughly before they are appointed. Staff work sensitively with parents and external agencies to monitor and support vulnerable pupils. As a result, these pupils receive the help and protection they need.’
