Feeling safe and happy at school

At Grovelands, we want to make sure that you feel looked after, safe and happy when you are in and out of school. Sometimes we don’t know if something bad is happening, so we need you to tell us.

What does safeguarding mean?

Safeguarding means all the things we do to make sure you are kept safe from any harm.

Safeguarding means that staff will:

Protect you from harm

Make sure that nothing stops you being healthy or developing properly

Make sure that you are looked after

Make sure that you have the best life chances and can grow up happy and successful

We have a Safeguarding Team - these adults have a special job to help if something is worrying or upsetting you.

Remember though, ALL the adults in school are here to listen to you and help.

School is a great place to spend time with your friends, to learn new things, to get involved in exciting lessons such as sports, art and music. Coming to school regularly is important as it means you do not miss any learning and can practice the new skills that you learn.
