At De Lisle Catholic Academy a child’s safety and well being is at the heart of everything we do, this is in line with our mission statement ‘Rooted and grounded in love’. We believe that creating a secure environment is paramount to fostering a positive learning experience. Children are taught how to keep themselves safe, on and off line, to develop positive and healthy relationships and how to avoid situations where they might be at risk including by being exploited.
Here, you’ll find information on our policies and procedures dedicated to ensuring the protection of all members of our school community. We are committed to promoting a culture of openness, trust, and support, where every voice is heard, and every concern is taken seriously. Together, we strive to create a safe and nurturing environment where students can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.
De Lisle College has a statutory responsibility to share any concerns it might have about a child in need of protection with other agencies and in particular police, health and children’s services. Schools are not able to investigate concerns but have a legal duty to refer them. The school follows legislation that aims to act in the best interests of the child. We would like to reassure you that the continued safety and wellbeing of our students is our top priority.
