Ashlands is part of the Moorlands Learning Trust and the Child Protection & Safeguarding Policy is held centrally. It can be found here.
At times it might be necessary to share information and work in partnership with other agencies, when there are concerns about a child’s welfare. We will ensure that our concerns about our pupils are discussed with parents/carers first, unless we have reason to believe that such a move would be contrary to the child’s welfare.
If you have a safeguarding concern about an adult in school, please contact the Headteacher. If you have a safeguarding concern about the Headteacher, please contact Mrs Annet Nottingham annet.nottingham@ashlands.school
