Calderhead High School CP policy with badge
Any concerns around Child Protection should be brought immediately to the attention of the Child Protection Co-ordinator. In Calderhead High School, this is Ms M. M. Darragh, Depute Head Teacher. In her absence, direct the concern to Mr Robertson, Headteacher or PT Pupil Support.
Rationale
All children have a right to be protected from abuse and neglect, therefore child protection is the responsibility of everyone. The shared responsibilities of Education & Families and other agency employees are to protect children from abuse and exploitation, to respond appropriately when abuse is identified and to ensure whenever possible that all children can exercise their right to be raised in a warm, stimulating, and safe environment with the support of staff, their families and carers. It is the clear responsibility of all those involved in our school to adopt good practice throughout their work.
