Safeguarding in Early Years

At Bishops Down Primary School and Nursery, our most important responsibility is to safeguard all the children who attend our school. We do this in lots of different ways, working with parents, the children, with Kent County Council and Children's Social Services and the wider community. We have a policy called the Early Years Supervision Policy that sets out how we keep children safe whilst in our care.

There are also lots of resources available for parents to start talking to their children about keeping safe, even at this early age. At school, we use the NSPCC Speak Out, Stay Safe resources for lessons and assemblies. Here is a link to NSPCC website, that provides parents with information and advice for first conversations.
