Paxton is committed to providing a safe and secure environment for children, staff and visitors. We promote a climate where children and adults feel confident about sharing any concerns, which they may have about their own safety or well-being of others.

Guidelines for staff/visitors

If you think a child is in need because they are suffering from harm you must do the following:

Act quickly and share the information with your Designated Safeguarding Leads (DSL). If you are unable to locate a DSL please report to the school office and they will assist you in locating a DSL.

All concerns must be reported before leaving the school premises.

  • Make a record of what you have seen or been told; be factual.

  • Make a record of any visible injuries.

  • Do not make assumptions.

  • Only ask simple questions:

    • Who? What? Where? When?​

  • Never promise to keep 'secrets'.

  • Report any concerns relating to the conduct of staff/visitors to the Headteacher immediately.
