What is Safeguarding?

Safeguarding can be defined by promoting the health, safety, and welfare of all pupils. We invite all parents/carers and pupils to regularly check the Safeguarding page on our website so they are aware of the different avenues of support available in helping to keep children safe.

EARLY HELP INFORMATION

What is Early Help?

Early help aims to provide support to children, young people, and families to prevent problems from escalating into more serious issues, and to promote positive outcomes. The goal is to identify and address needs early on to prevent issues from worsening.

Research suggests that early help can: protect children from harm, reduce the need for a referral to child protection services, improve children's long-term outcomes, improve children’s home and family life, and support children to develop strengths and skills to prepare them for adult life.

Please see below for resources and information related to early help and general safeguarding.

CAN'T FIND WHAT YOU NEED?

First, have a look at our Mental Health & Wellbeing page, where there are lots more resources for young people and adults.

If you're still stuck, please email safeguarding@sjcs.org.uk and we will do our best to help. Pupils can also go directly to their 'go to' person (i.e. their Form Tutor) or a member of staff they trust if they have any questions or concerns.
