Operation Encompass
Our school participates in a police-led initiative called Operation Encompass, a scheme which ensures that we can support any child where a domestic incident has been reported to police from their home. Following a domestic incident, the police make contact with the school and communicate relevant information to nominated school staff. This ensures that we are made aware early enough to support children.
You can find out more about Operation Encompass on their website: Operation Encompass
Online Safety
Online safety is an important aspect of keeping children safe and is a key component of our curriculum.
Parenting in a digital world can be tough. The guide below 'Parenting in a Digital World' aims to provide support for parents in ensuring that children are safe online.
