Safeguarding at Landscove

Landscove C of E Primary School is committed to safeguarding all members of the school community and our visitors. The school's procedures operate in line with the Devon and Torbay Safeguarding Children Board and Department of Education statutory guidance. The school is committed to cooperating fully with other agencies on matters relating to child protection. If you have any concerns about the welfare of the students please report them immediately to the designated safeguarding lead. Landscove C of E Primary School Child Protection and Safeguarding Policy is available on the school website and by request at the school office. This policy operates as part of a wider suite of welfare policies.

The lead safeguarding officers in the school are:

The Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) for our school is Jill Ryder Jill.Ryder@thelink.academy

The Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead for our school is LukeAnsermoz LukeAnsermoz@thelink.academy
 
Contact Telephone Number for any Safeguarding concerns 01803 762656
 
If any member of staff is concerned about a pupil's well-being, emotional or physical, and/or has worries about their safety either from their own or others’ actions (others include adults and young people in and out of school)

The school procedure is as follows:

  • Discuss concerns with the School Designated Safeguarding Lead or Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead (if DSL not on site)
  • Concerns must be reported as soon as possible. It is much better to share a concern or worry than to keep it to yourself.
  • The School DSL will make a decision as to whether outside agencies should be involved. This will usually be following advice from the Child Protection Threshold Team (CYPS)
  • Write down as soon as possible what the pupil has told you, including the time, date, and names of other people involved.
  • Confidentiality should never be promised, you have a legal obligation to share any concerns that involve a child being harmed or at risk of harm
  • The pupil's welfare is paramount.
  • If the concern relates to the conduct of another member of staff this must be reported to the Executive Headteacher.

Remember - Never feel worried to share a concern.
It is always better to share a concern and find out later that there was nothing to worry about than not to share a concern and find out later that a child has suffered.
