Safeguarding Information
Newall Green Primary safeguard their children by:
- Having designated safeguarding staff: Executive Head: Mrs Rudd, Safeguarding Lead: Mr Rudd and Governor: Pauline Powell, with Deputy Safeguarding staff, Lisa Redford, Sarah Burton, Elizabeth Pattenden, Kirstie McKenzie, Evelyn Uche, Alec Smith, Adam Pattenden, Cat Campbell, Helen Ackerley and Emma Webb, making sure they are well trained.
- Making our children and adults feel safe in school by having clear steps to follow if anyone is worried or concerned. We ask Manchester Safeguarding Children Board for advice if we need it.
- Encouraging all our children, parents and staff to be themselves, no matter what their race, religion, family background or state of health.
- Making sure we know why children are off school, and helping them to be in school if we can.
- Attending meetings about individual pupils and making sure that personal information is kept confidential
- Being open and honest with children and parents when something is wrong and working together with them to make things better
