Safeguarding & Online Safety

Safeguarding is Everybody’s Responsibility

Children have a right to be looked after, cared for and protected. At Stanbridge we have a duty of care to ensure that all users of the school are kept safe from harm. We are committed to providing a secure and supportive environment in which children can develop and grow into mature and responsible people. Safeguarding children is an essential part of our holistic approach to ensure that children are protected from abuse and neglect including online.

The best interests of the children will always be our priority. As such, there are times we will need to record, monitor and share information with other agencies. We will share concerns about our pupils with the child’s parents/carers unless we have reason to believe that such a move would not be in the child’s best interest.

If you are worried that a child is at risk of harm, please report this immediately to the following staff in school on 01525 210328 or email info@stanbridge.beds.sch.uk

Radicalisation and Extremism

Children, teenagers and adults can be drawn towards the process of radicalisation in a number of ways, many of which may overlap. When we talk about ‘vulnerability’ or ‘susceptibility’ within this context we mean individuals who, because of their circumstance, experiences or state of mind can be lead towards a terrorist ideology.  The website ‘Lets Talk About It’ explains this by looking at the vulnerabilities that children or adults may experience that could leave them open to radicalisation and extremism.  Please go to www.ltai.info for further information.
