Policies and Guidance

We listen to all of our pupils and encourage them to approach us with any concerns. As some of our pupils are pre-verbal, they are encouraged to communicate using appropriate methods, suitable to them. We encourage pupils with any concerns, to identify an appropriate or trusted adult to confide in. 

The poster attached below is displayed in every classroom.   Safeguarding also has a place within our Curriculum and Assemblies.  Within PHSE, there are a number of topics which span across year groups with a focus on Safeguarding, including 'Learning Strategies for Making Decisions and Saying No,' 'Safe and Unsafe Relationships' and 'E-Safety.' We also take part in Anti-Bullying Week annually.   We also encourage visitors like PCSO's and NSPCC to come in to speak to our pupils and deliver their own Safeguarding programmes - For example Speak out. Stay Safe.  

 Personal Care - Kaleidoscope school have a personal care policy and pupils requiring support with personal care have an individualised Personal Care Plan, created in partnership with parents and relevant Health professionals.
