The school seeks to develop and improve our safeguarding policies and procedures continuously and to promote a culture of excellence in safeguarding amongst our staff and volunteers.

We have a number of policies and procedures in place that form the foundations of our safeguarding commitment.

Since 2014, an ongoing objective has been to achieve, and then maintain, beacon status for safeguarding procedures and practice within the UK independent education sector. To that end, in 2014 Professor Graham Badman CBE was commissioned to conduct a thorough and independent review of current safeguarding practice and culture, and make recommendations on how the School can achieve the objective. Professor Badman is well known in maintained-sector education, a campaigner for children’s rights through UNICEF, and a former Director of Children’s Services for Kent, and his team included senior figures from policing, children’s charities and the independent sector.
