Safeguarding

We are committed to our duty to safeguard and promote the welfare and wellbeing of children and young people in our care and those who work in our school. Through our work, we aim to ensure a safe learning and working environment for students, staff, parents and caregivers, and visitors alike. We take our responsibilities in relation to safeguarding and child protection very seriously. Where there are safeguarding concerns, staff communicate this to the school’s Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL). It is our aim to ensure that each student feels that they have a trusted adult that they can communicate their concerns or worries.

Our Safeguarding standards are aligned to Cognita and its global family of schools. Our DSLs have monthly meetings with our regional team and Asia Safeguardupdated thumbnailing Manager for regular training, sharing best practices and support. Every year, our campuses are externally audited.

“Safeguarding is [ ..] an integral part of the routine in each school.”

“…very impressive leaders [….] evidenced by the skilful integration of the safeguarding agenda into already caring schools.”

“Safeguarding is very high profile in the school […]”

“There was good provision during lockdown across all schools.”

“There have been […] effective interactions with parents around well-being during [home- based learning].”

“Children come into school happily and demonstrate that they trust teachers and other staff.”

“Respecting the voice of the child is central to classroom decisions.”

Staff receive regular training and updates on their professional responsibilities in relation to safeguarding and child protection. A clear reporting system for concerns is in place and understood by all. As part of our provision for safeguarding, we have included Protective Behaviour Programme into our curriculum.
