Safeguarding

Safeguarding means preventing and protecting children at risk from abuse or neglect and educating those around them to recognise the signs and dangers.

Ysgol Uwchradd Caergybi fully recognises its contribution to safeguarding. There are three main elements to our policy:

1. prevention of harm through teaching and pastoral support offered to pupils;
2. procedures for identifying and reporting on cases, or on cases where abuse is suspected;  
3. support for pupils who have possibly been victims of abuse.

Our safeguarding policy applies to all staff and volunteers who work at the school including our Governors. A teaching assistant, break or lunch time supervisor, carer, secretary, technical or administrative member of staff might be the first person a child informs of being abused.
