Safeguarding
Rossett School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all of our students. Each student’s welfare is of paramount importance.
Safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children is everyone’s responsibility. Everyone who comes into contact with children and their families and carers has a role to play in safeguarding children. In order to fulfil this responsibility effectively, all professionals should make sure their approach is child-centred. This means that they should consider, at all times, what is in the best interests of the child.
Rossett School follows North Yorkshire Safeguarding Children Partnership’s (NYSCP) multi-agency procedures and practice guidance. These have been developed as a framework for services working in child safeguarding within North Yorkshire. They reflect relevant legislation, guidance and the local context in North Yorkshire. Professionals that are or may be involved in the protection of children need to have a working knowledge of these procedures and documents and to refer to relevant sections as required.
