Here at Ilam Primary School we have a moral and legal duty to keep all our children safe from harm. Harm which can hinder the development of a child can be:
- Physical abuse
- Emotional abuse
- Neglect
- Sexual abuse
Where we have concerns in any area we will talk firstly to the child. If we have cause to be concerned, we will make our concerns know to the First Response Team at Staffordshire County Council. It will then be their responsibility to investigate further. Please do not be offended in any way if a member of staff approaches you or discusses a concern with you. Equally if you have any concerns, or require any support, please speak to your child’s class teacher or one of our safeguarding leads. We are all committed to giving the children the environment and safety in which to learn.
Our safeguarding leads are:
- Emily Johnson – Designated Safeguarding Lead.
- Emily Goldstraw – Deputy Designated Safeguarding lead.
- Kate Greenwood – Deputy Designated Safeguarding lead.
- Suzanne Wiltshire – Nominated Governor for Safeguarding
