At Meadows First School, we are fully committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all our pupils. We believe that every child has the right to feel safe, secure, and supported. Our staff are trained to identify concerns early and respond appropriately, working in partnership with families and external agencies to ensure the best outcomes for children.

We follow the statutory guidance outlined in Keeping Children Safe in Education and have robust policies and procedures in place.
