Alderwasley Hall School Parent Booklet

Alderwasley Hall School & Sixth Form is committed to keeping children and young people safe. By providing a safe environment for young people to live, learn and play, and by identifying children who are, or may be suffering harm, the school will endeavour to ensure they are kept safe both at school and at home. Safeguarding Statement

To achieve this, we have systems in place which are designed to:

Create and maintain a safe and learning environment. Identify child welfare concerns and take appropriate action.

Use the curriculum to enable children and young people to develop keep safe strategies. Operate safer recruitment and selction procedures to prevent unsuitable people working with our children and young people.

Anyone visiting the school shares the responsibility to keep children safe whilst on our premises and will be required to work within the guidelines of our safeguarding procedures. Our safeguarding policies can be viewed in the policies section of the school website. If you have concerns about the welfare of a child please contact the school office (Tel: 01629 822586), and you will be put through to a member of our safeguarding team immediately. For more detailed information please ask to see our Safeguarding and Child Protection Policy, which is part of a set of policies designed to create a safe environment. All of these policies can be found on the school website or can be requested from the school office. Relationships If your child froms a relationship with a peer on the same house, we will be required to transition your child to a different house within the school to ensure that care staff can safely support the relationship. We will always work with the young persons therapy team to ensure that they are fully understanding of the house rules around relationships so that the potential house move will never come as a surprise.
