We are explicitly dedicated to adhering to the Children Act 1989, the Working Together to Safeguard Children (2020) framework, and rigorous Ofsted regulatory standards. Every decision, every assessment, and every interaction is guided by what is best for the child.
Safeguarding underpins every aspect of our work. We operate robust recruitment procedures, including enhanced DBS checks and thorough reference verification for every member of staff. All team members complete ongoing safeguarding, child protection, and trauma-informed training to ensure they are equipped to recognise and respond to concerns.
Our centres provide secure, monitored environments where the safety of children and families is paramount. Where appropriate and consented, CCTV and audio monitoring support our duty of care. We maintain clear, immediate procedures for reporting and acting upon any safeguarding concern, working in close collaboration with local authorities and placing agencies to ensure a transparent and coordinated response.
If you have any safeguarding concerns or wish to discuss our policy in detail, please contact our team. We are committed to working openly and collaboratively with families, professionals, and placing authorities to keep children safe.
