Children thrive and feel valued in a safe, supportive atmosphere.
At Pocklington School, it is the responsibility of governors and all staff to protect and promote the welfare of our pupils, all of the time
Keeping children safe is our high priority and underpins everything we do. We take a comprehensive approach to safeguarding and make sure it is integrated into all our policies and processes.
You can view the Pocklington School Foundation Safeguarding Children Policy via the link below.
We take all welfare concerns seriously and encourage children and young people to talk to us about anything that worries them. We will always act in the best interests of the child, working together with children, families, staff and in co-operation with local agencies.
