At St Margaret’s‑at‑Cliffe Primary School, keeping children safe is at the heart of everything we do. We want every child to feel secure, cared for, and confident that there is always someone who will listen.

Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility, and we work closely with families, staff, governors, and external agencies to ensure our children are protected and supported.

Our approach includes:

  • A strong safeguarding culture where concerns are acted on quickly
  • Clear policies and procedures that guide our practice
  • Regular training for all staff and volunteers
  • A curriculum that helps children understand how to stay safe
  • Open communication with families

We encourage children to speak up, ask questions, and share worries. They know that the adults around them will take them seriously and help them feel safe.

If you ever have a concern about a child’s safety or wellbeing, please contact our safeguarding team immediately. We are here to help.
