Blewbury School is committed to safeguarding and protecting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
We undertake rigorous checks on all staff and volunteers who work in our school and maintain a central record documenting these. Staff involved in recruitment and selection of employees are trained in safer recruitment, and all our staff and volunteers undertake in-house Child Protection training.
Miss Reeder, Headteacher, is our Designated Safeguarding Officer and should be the first point of contact for any concerns around safeguarding and child protection. Our Deputy Safeguarding Lead is Mrs White. Both are available in school, by phone on 01235 850411. Ann Parham is our named governor with responsibility for safeguarding.
As part of our role to safeguard pupils, please be aware that, like all schools, we have a duty to share information with other agencies where there are any concerns about the safety or well-being of a child.
Our safeguarding policy is available on the website, or in paper form through our school office.
If you are concerned about a child’s welfare out of school, please contact the Oxfordshire Multi-Agency Safeguarding Hub (MASH) on 0345 050 7666.
