We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children.  

As such we expect all staff, volunteers, and visitors to share this common commitment. 

If you feel that a child may be at risk of harm but are not sure, then inform one of the safeguarding team immediately. Remember it is not up to you to decide whether a child has been abused BUT it is up to you to report concerns so that appropriate action can be taken.  

Concerns are to be reported to one of the Designated Safeguarding Leads- they will offer advice and take appropriate action. 

Our Designated Safeguarding Leads are: 

Sara Tilbey, Headteacher & DSL

Sue Warren, Office Manager & Deputy DSL

Rebecca Goodenough, Deputy Headteacher & Deputy DSL

Carole Groves, Inclusion Manager & Deputy DSL

Jan Martin, Executive Safeguarding Lead, ODBST
