    • Safeguarding

    We are committed to promoting the welfare and safeguarding all children at Court de Wyck Church School and expect everyone to share this commitment.

    In line with our safeguarding policy and statutory guidance, we have clear procedures in school for responding to any concerns about a child’s safety or wellbeing.

    Welcome to the South West Child Protection Procedures 

    The school site is secure during the school day, so all visitors must report to the main entrance. Please be mindful that for everybody’s safety, identification procedures will be carried out and you will be asked to wear an ID badge.

    All members of staff are vetted against national safeguarding procedures before being allowed to work in school. At least one member of every interview panel has undertaken safer recruitment training to ensure that best practices and all necessary checks are carried out.
