Overview
At Court Moor the concept of ‘Safeguarding’ all members of our school community underpins everything else that we do. All members of staff receive regular training in identifying and raising child protection concerns, dealing appropriately with disclosures, and handling sensitively issues around radicalisation and extremism (The Prevent Duty), Female Genital Mutilation (FGM), online safety, sexual health and appropriate relationships, and drugs and alcohol awareness. Our detailed and informative policies regarding all these issues are reviewed regularly, and can be found in the Policies section of Information for Parents on the school website.
Parents and students who have any concerns can speak to any member of staff who will find the best person to help you.
The Designated Safeguarding Lead at Court Moor is Mrs Milner, and the Deputy Designated Safeguarding Leads are as follows: Ms Allison, Mrs Metcalfe, Mr Sandford, Mr McEnroe and Mr Ashford.
