Safeguarding

Information for parents

Safeguarding is at the forefront of all that we do. It is the responsibility of every member of staff, volunteer and regular visitor to our school to ensure that they carry out the requirements of these procedures and, at all times, work in a way that will safeguard and promote the welfare of all of our pupils. All staff and governors benefit from regular training. Staff also receive regular updates on Safeguarding from the Designated Safeguarding Lead.

Uxendon Manor  is committed to safeguarding all children.

Peer on peer (child on child) sexual abuse and harassment

This helpline provides both children and adults who are potential victims of sexual abuse in schools with the appropriate support and advice. This includes how to contact the police and report crimes if they wish. The helpline also provides support to parents and professionals. Peer on peer sexual abuse and harassment is not acceptable and not tolerated. Sexual harassment refers to unwanted conduct of a sexual nature that occurs online or offline. Sexual harassment violates a pupil’s dignity and makes them feel intimidated, degraded or humiliated, and can create a hostile, sexualised or offensive environment. If left unchallenged, sexual harassment can create an atmosphere that normalises inappropriate behaviour and may lead to sexual violence.

Sexual harassment could include:

Sexual comments.

Sexual “jokes” and taunting.

Physical behaviour, such as deliberately brushing against another pupil.

Online sexual harassment, including non-consensual sharing of images and videos and consensual sharing of sexual images and videos (often known as sexting), inappropriate comments on social media, exploitation, coercion and threats.

 

'STOP IT NOW' are a child protection charity who work to prevent child sexual abuse by making sure adults know what they can do to keep children safe. Through their anonymous and confidential online advice and self-help resources they can help you:

 

CEOP helps any child or young person under the age of 18 who is being pressured, forced or tricked into taking part in sexual activity of any kind. This can be something that has taken place either online or in ‘the real world’, or both. The CEOP Safety Centre has clear information and advice on what can be reported to CEOP, the reporting process and what will happen if you do decide to make a report. You can visit the CEOP Safety Centre and make a report directly. 

 

Prevent Strategy

Prevent is a government strategy designed to stop people becoming terrorists  or supporting terrorist or extremist causes. Many of the things we do in school to help pupils become positive, happy members of society also contribute to the Prevent strategy.

 

Anti-bullying

Keeping safe from bullying is an integral part of our RHEd curriculum. Through our values-based curriculum pupils learn how to behave towards each other promoting the British values of tolerance and mutual respect. We learn all about how to Speak Out and Stay Safe at school using the NSPCC resources:
