Safeguarding at The Grove Primary School
We are committed to ensuring the safety and wellbeing of all students. Our safeguarding procedures are in line with statutory guidance, including Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSIE) and Working Together to Safeguard Children.
Our Trust-wide Child Protection Policy outlines the steps we take to protect students and provides clear procedures for reporting safeguarding concerns.

Operation Encompass
We are an Operation Encompass school.
Operation Encompass is a partnership between police and schools. One of the principles of Operation Encompass is that all incidents of domestic abuse are shared with schools, not just those where an offence can be identified.
As a school we work hard to ensure all children are protected and supported. Please see the document below.
The document below also highlights what you can do to safeguard your children at school or in an out of school setting.
