SafeGuarding

SAFEGUARDING IS EVERYONE'S BUSINESS!

Forest Way School fully recognises the contribution it can make to protect children and support students in school. We aim to safeguard and promote our students' welfare, safety and health by fostering an honest, open, caring and supportive climate environment. We encourage children to talk about their worries and to report their concerns to us. The students’ welfare is of paramount importance.

Who to Talk To

Students are encouraged to talk to any member of staff with whom they feel comfortable.

There are a number of key members of staff within the school whose responsibility to oversee safeguarding. These are:

• Designated Safeguarding Lead:
  
  Gail Seaton - Headteacher

• Deputy Designated Safeguarding Leads:

• Sarah Wallace - Deputy Headteacher
  Leanne Larder - Assistant Headteacher
  Sam Woodward - Assistant Headteacher​

Parents/carers are encouraged to contact any of the above staff if they have any concerns.

Any concerns out of school hours should be communicated via parentssupport@forestway.leics.sch.uk

We work with Operation Encompass to ensure we appropriately safeguard all children
