Introduction
Safeguarding and Child Protection are the most important part of everyone's job at Lancasterian Primary School.
We ask everyone who works with our pupils to follow the guidelines set out within the schools Safeguarding and Child protection policies, whether you are a teacher, member of support staff, visitor or volunteer, we ask that you adhere to the policies and procedures while you are at our school.
Keeping our children safe
The school operates a policy restricting unsupervised access to our pupils by those that have not been correctly vetted.
All adults who work regularly with our pupils must undertake an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check (DBS), which must be completed before the commencement of working with our pupils.
All visitors to the school must sign in at the office and wear a visitors badge at all times. Any unidentified adult in the school will be challenged.
Staff:

If you do not have access to CPOMS please complete a cause for concern form which can be downloaded here.
