At Sneinton St Stephen's C of E Primary School, our staff, governors and all visitors fully recognise the contribution the school makes to safeguarding children.

We recognise that the safety and protection of all pupils is of paramount importance and that all staff, including volunteers, have a full and active part to play in providing early help to protect pupils from harm.

We believe that the school should provide a caring, positive, safe and stimulating environment, which promotes all pupils’ social, physical, emotional and moral development.  In delivering this ambition, we will adhere to the principles set out in the Trust’s Safeguarding Guidance document as well as the Nottingham City Local Authority guidance and procedures for supporting families in our communities

Ultimately, effective safeguarding of children can only be achieved by putting children at the centre and by every individual and agency playing their full part; working together to meet the needs of our most vulnerable children; in line with Working Together to Keep Children Safe and Keeping Children Safe in Education 2025.

Further information about safeguarding at Sneinton St. Stephen's can be found in our Child Protection and Safeguarding Policy, and additional documents below.
