Safeguarding & Policies

Protection and wellbeing

The wellbeing of all of our pupils is our first and foremost concern. The term safeguarding covers a range of functions that are designed to look after our pupils, from anti-bullying and online safety through to child protection.

All staff and volunteers who work within the school undergo enhanced DBS checks. Staff receive appropriate safeguarding training on an annual basis. The Advisory Board have oversight of safeguarding and ensure that there is a named board member with responsibility for Safeguarding within the school. If you have any concerns about safeguarding, you should contact the Designated Safeguarding Lead, Mr Paul Brooker (pbrooker@rookwoodschool.org)

The school has a set of policies in line with statutory regulations and these, plus relevant non-statutory policies, are available in PDF format below and by contacting the main school office. Please note the number of formal complaints received in the last academic year is noted in the Complaints Procedure.
