Courthill Infant School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. We expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. We are fully committed to ensuring that consistent and effective safeguarding procedures are in place to support families, children and staff at school. All concerns are passed through the members of staff who are trained as ‘Designated Safeguarding Leads’ (DSLs). This is in school in compliance with the "sharing of information" guidance. Please be aware that the Police, via Children's Services, will alert us if a domestic abuse incident occurs at the home of one of our pupils. However, to ensure we meet data protection requirements, details of the incident will not be shared with us unless there are other concerns about the child's welfare.
