Safeguarding
Your Child is in Safe Hands
Safeguarding of all pupils is of paramount importance and parents are encouraged to speak to any member of the pastoral team about any matters of concern, however small, regarding the health and welfare of their child.
Our experienced staff fully appreciate that through nurturing individual personal development and promoting happiness and well-being, we enable students to thrive both academically and emotionally.
Repton Safeguarding
All adults working in or on behalf of Repton have a responsibility to safeguard and promote the welfare of children. This includes:
- Providing a safe environment in which children can learn
- Identifying children who may be in need of extra help and taking appropriate action
- Understanding how to identify and protect children who are suffering, or are likely to suffer, significant harm
Our staff induction and training covers the aspirations of the school with regard to Safeguarding as well as expectations of staff. Repton School has robust systems in place, which support Safeguarding including a Designated Safeguarding Person, a Safeguarding Committee, a Staff Code of Conduct and other policies.
We believe that Safeguarding is the responsibility of everyone in the Repton family. All staff, volunteers, parents and guardians should raise any concerns they have about poor or unsafe practice or worries about a child’s safety.
The Governing Body has the responsibility to ensure that Repton complies with Safeguarding duties under legislation from the UK and Malaysia. There is a dedicated Safeguarding Governor and Governors as a whole approve all policies produced by school.
Repton does everything in its power to prevent people who pose a risk of harm working with our children. This includes Safer Recruitment policies such as checking of potential employees as well as arrangements for visitors and volunteers. There are procedures in place to handle allegations of abuse against staff.
There are systems in place for children to communicate concerns and staff will always act in the best interests of the child.
