Safeguarding
'Safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children is everyone’s responsibility. Everyone who comes into contact with children and their families has a role to play in safeguarding children.' - Keeping Children Safe in Education
Sowerby Primary Academy is committed to providing a safe and secure environment for children, staff and visitors. We promote a climate where students and adults will feel confident about sharing any concerns which they may have about their own safety or the well-being of others.
Anyone with concerns about the safety of a student MUST report it to our designated Safeguarding lead or team:
- Designated Safeguarding Lead - Executive Headteacher - Keeley Ungerechts
- Deputy Safeguarding Lead - Carol Merifield
- Safeguarding Governor - Robert Williamson
To report any safeguarding concerns please contact our safeguarding team using the school's email or telephone number.
