Safeguarding

At The Arches we do all that is possible and reasonable to safeguard the children in our care. We have clear policies and strategies to ensure the safeguarding and welfare of all pupils, especially those relating to child protection, behaviour, bullying, safe recruitment of staff, health and safety, harassment and discrimination. We aim to meet all our statutory duties to a high standard. In life there is always an element of risk, and whilst accepting this, we do all that is reasonable and possible to keep children safe. The governing body and all those who work here put the safeguarding of pupils as their highest priority to ensure that all children are free to learn without worry or fear of harm.
