Safeguarding

Keeping our pupils safe at Cranleigh C of E Primary School is THE most important responsibility we have.


Our Co-ordinated, Whole school, Child-centred Approach

'Everyone who works with children has a responsibility for keeping them safe. No single practitioner can have a full picture of a child’s needs and circumstances and, if children and families are to receive the right help at the right time, everyone who comes into contact with them has a role to play in identifying concerns, sharing information and taking prompt action.'  (Working Together to Safeguard Children: A guide to inter-agency working to safeguard and promote the welfare of children, p.11.)


Digital Charter

We have signed up to The Church of England's Digital Charter as part of a pledge to make the online world a safer, kinder and fairer place for our community to be.
