Safeguarding

We believe that our school should provide a caring, positive, safe and stimulating environment that promotes the social, physical and moral development of the individual child. Safeguarding children is everyone’s responsibility. We encourage a culture of listening to children and taking account of their wishes and feelings in any action the school takes to protect them.

Operation Encompass (an initiative to enhance communication between the police and schools where a child is at risk from domestic abuse)

As as school we have signed up to Operation Encompass, which has been designed to provide early reporting to schools / colleges of any domestic abuse incidents that occur in which a child was present, ordinarily resides at the incident location or with an involved party. We know that children can be significantly affected through witnessing or being exposed to domestic abuse and this operation will allow us to better support our pupils and their families.

At Ocklynge Junior School we have a Key Adult who is Sylvia Berhane. She will be able to use information that has been shared with her, in confidence, to ensure that the right support is available should it be required by a child and / or their family.

We are keen to offer the best support available to our pupils and we believe this is extremely beneficial for all those involved.

Online Safety

Do you know the age rating for some of the games your children are playing? Please find attached a sheet explaining the different age certificates of some games. The guidance is there for a reason – you may not always realise what your children are exposing themselves to.
