Safeguarding
Parents & Carers
Information on safeguarding
At Old Hall Drive we are committed to ensuring the safety of all of our children with rigorous policies and procedures in place.
The Education Act 2002 places a duty on schools to have arrangements in place to ensure that they safeguard and promote the welfare of children; and follow statutory guidance.
Governing Bodies must have someone who understands the requirements of the safeguarding guidance and legislation.

A voice for students
Tootoot gives students a safe voice to be able to report incidents of bullying, cyber bullying, racism, extremism, radicalisation, sexism, mental health and self harm directly to their place of learning. Tootoot gives students an alternative way to disclose their concerns when they are unable to do so face-to-face.
Every Childhood is Worth Fighting For
NSPCC is the leading children's charity fighting to end child abuse in the UK, Channel Islands and Isle of Man. We help children who have been abused to rebuild their lives, protect those at risk, and find the best ways of preventing abuse from ever happening.
Child Exploitation and Online Protection
CEOP helps keep children and young people safe from sexual abuse and grooming online. They help thousands of children and young people every year, as well as their parents and carers.
New NSPCC Helpline
Young people and adults can contact Report Abuse in Education on 0800 136 663 or email help@nspcc.org.uk.
The Department for Education has commissioned the NSPCC to launch a new helpline called Report Abuse in Education. The helpline comes after numerous anonymised testimonials of sexual harassment and abuse in schools and colleges were shared to the Everyone’s Invited website.
The newly launched helpline will provide support to:
children and young people who want to share current and non-recent experiences of sexual abuse and harassment
children and young people who want to talk about being involved in or witnessing any incidents
anyone who works or volunteers in a school setting and needs support and guidance
adults who have experienced non-recent abuse
parents and carers who are concerned about their own child or other children.
