Keeping Children Safe

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. At Hardwicke, in order to fulfil this responsibility effectively, we ensure that our approach is child-centred. This means that at all times, we act in the best interests of the child.

The healthy, safety and well-being of all children in our care are paramount. We endeavour to provide a safe and welcoming environment where children are respected and valued. We recognise that all staff members have a full and proactive part to play in protecting our children from harm.

If you have any concerns about the safety and well-being of a child, please contact the Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL)
