At Thythorn Field Primary School, safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children is our top priority. We are committed to providing a safe, nurturing and inclusive environment where every child can thrive.
What is Safeguarding?
Safeguarding is the action taken to promote the welfare of children and protect them from harm. This includes:
• Protecting children from abuse and neglect.
• Ensuring children grow up in safe, supportive environments.
• Taking action to ensure all children have the best outcomes.
A copy of the latest Safeguarding/Child Protection policy can be found in the policy section.
