Brize Norton Primary School has a strong safeguarding culture and is committed to safeguarding and protecting the welfare of children and young people. We expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. As a team, we undertake regular in-house training and keep up to date with the Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSIE) document. Volunteers also receive an induction from the Headteacher which includes safeguarding.
Safeguarding is at the forefront of our mind during the recruitment process, several members of our team have Safer-Recruitment Training. We keep an up to date Central Record which is regularly monitored by our Safeguarding Governor.
As well as keeping ourselves up to date with the latest information, we also embed safeguarding into our wider curriculum and specifically our PHSE Curriculum for our children. We also work closely with our Police Neighbourhood Officer which is Richard Conner, who delivers assemblies, supports with specific class-based learning as well as being a presence around and support for our school community.
