At Stelling Minnis CE Primary School, we believe that rigorous safeguarding procedures are paramount to ensuring that our students well-being and happiness allows them to be the shining stars they deserve to be.
Our Designated Safeguarding Leads meet regularly and ensure that all staff are trained to proactively promote children’s welfare and are committed to listening to children. We are committed to following both statutory guidance as well as "best practice" guidelines. You can find our policies linked to safeguarding under Key Info/ Policies and procedures.
If you have a worry or concern, no matter how small, please get in touch with one of our Designated Safeguarding Leads by calling the school office. Alternatively you may contact our Safeguarding Lead Governor, Pam Burgess, via pam.burgess@stelling-minnis.kent.sch.uk
