The following principles underpin decisions and actions: our approach aims to achieve the best outcome for students; all our staff have a responsibility and receive regular training; our personnel procedures aim for best practice in relation to safer recruitment; work with other agencies is valued and matters surrounding information sharing and confidentiality are informed by the Worcestershire Safeguarding Children Board (WSCB).
