Safeguarding

 

Here at Oakwood Infant and Nursery School we take the safety and welfare of our pupils. very seriously.  Rigorous steps are taken to ensure that children stay safe and do not come to any harm. We work closely with parents/carers and a range of professional external agencies in order to secure this.

 

If you have any concerns, no matter how small they may seem, about the safety or welfare of any child, please contact the school's Designated Lead for Child Protection, Lynda Lloyd, Safeguarding and Welfare Manager or Aimie Habgood, Headteacher.

On-Line Safety

 

The internet is invaluable in today's high-tech world for both information and as a tool for communication.  It is however, vitally important that certain protocols are followed to ensure personal safety is protected at all times. Internet Safety is taught to our children in school as part of the curriculum and is reinforced whenever the children access any information technology equipment. The use of the internet in school is strictly filtered and the tightest security is in place at all times.
