At The Vineyard School, we have a share commitment to safeguarding our pupils and have carried out all the necessary training. Safeguarding is the action that is taken to promote the welfare of children and protect them from harm. Safeguarding means: protecting children from abuse and maltreatment, preventing harm to children’s health or development, ensuring children grow up with the provision of safe and effective care and taking action to enable all children and young people to have the best outcomes.
