Safeguarding Statement

Our nursery school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff, governors, volunteers and visitors to share this commitment. We recognise that safeguarding children is everyone's responsibility and that safer recruitment is an essential part of creating a safe environment for all children.

We follow robust recruitment and selection procedures designed to deter, identify and reject unsuitable candidates. These procedures comply with the latest statutory guidance, including Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSIE) and the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS).
