Safeguarding

 


Safeguarding Advice for Supply Staff, Volunteers and Visitors:   

At KLA we aim to provide a safe and secure environment for our students, staff, volunteers and visitors. We are committed to safeguarding all of our young people. This leaflet is designed to support you by providing information about our safeguarding routines and procedures; this in turn will help you to understand your role in safeguarding our students while you are at KLA.   

Essential Safeguarding Routines:   

Badges: They identify adults who are entitled to be on site. They should be worn at all times and clearly visible.   

Visitors: All visitors must be signed in by reception and sign out when they leave. Visitors will need to tell reception staff who they are visiting and should have made an appointment. Approved visitors will be wearing a badge.  

What should I do if I am worried about a child?   

Report your concerns to a member of the safeguarding team (Mrs Goldup, Mrs Roberts, Ms Griffiths-Pugh and Mrs Germaney) by completing a Concern form which are available at reception or by emailing kla.safeguarding@kla.eastern-mat.co.uk  

What should I do if a student discloses that they are being harmed?   

  • Do not promise confidentiality   

  • Do not ask questions or discuss it   

  • Do not share personal experience   

  • Report immediately to the safeguarding team   

  • Do not allow the student to go home until it has been reported   

  • Report to a member of the safeguarding team immediately   

What should I do if the allegation involves a member of staff?   

  • Allegations should be reported to the Principal Mr Alan Fletcher   

  • If Mr Fletcher is unavailable report to Mr Phil Bugg (Senior Vice Principal) or Mrs Elanor Goldup (Vice Principal and DSL).  

What should I do if the allegation involves the Principal or the Head of School?   

  • Contact the Chair of the Academy Council: LJ Phoenix 07746 649182 

  • If they are unavailable contact the Chief Executive Officer of EMAT (Paul Shanks) 07483 043451  

  • Any member of staff or volunteer who does not feel confident to raise their concerns with the Principal or Chair of the Academy Council should contact the LADO directly on 01603 223473.
