Ravensden CE Primary Academy

Safeguarding

At Ravensden Primary Academy we are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. As such, we work together as a team to protect children from harm, making every effort to support children and families when they need it most.

 

We work closely with external agencies, such as Bedford Borough Social Care and Early Help professionals where we can access support for our children and families. We are also a part of Operation Encompass, a joint project by Bedfordshire Police, Bedford Borough Council and Bedford Borough Schools, where information about incidents of Domestic Abuse are shared with our school, so we can support our children and families more effectively.

 

 

The Designated Safeguarding Leads are:

Ms Anna Heeley, Deputy Head- lead DSL

Mrs Kate Larkworthy, Senior Teacher- Deputy DSL

Mrs Anna Spyropoulos, Headteacher, Deputy DSL

Mrs Taffy Booth, Safeguarding Governor.

Trust Safeguarding Lead, Gail Dumpleton

DSAMAT CEO, Anna Rogers
