SAFEGUARDING
The welfare and safety of children who attend our school is our paramount concern. We promote the health, well-being and safety of the pupils in all we do.
Our children have the right to protection, regardless of age, gender, race, culture or disability. They have the right to be safe in our school.
As stipulated by the Children Act (1989), the Education Act (2022) and the Protection of Children Act (2001), the staff at St Peter’s Church of England Primary School have a duty to report any concerns that they may have that any child may be at risk from significant harm, particularly as a consequence of possible abuse.
All adults working with or on behalf of children have a responsibility to safeguard and promote the welfare of children.
We are a listening school and will always take the time to listen to our pupils and parents and carers.
All staff at St Peter’s Church of England Primary School undergo a thorough safer recruitment and vetting process. All staff undergo regular safeguarding training.

Evidence shows that the students with the highest attendance throughout their time in school gain the best GCSE and A Level results. Our research found that pupils who performed better both at the end of primary and secondary school missed fewer days than those who didn’t perform as well. (Education Hub 23)
