Safeguarding
Kensington Avenue Primary School and Children’s Centre (KAPS &CC) believes that it is always unacceptable for a child or young person to experience abuse of any kind and recognises its responsibility to safeguard the welfare of all children and young people, by a commitment to practice that protects them.
We recognise that:
The welfare of the child is paramount
All children, regardless of age, disability, gender, racial heritage, religious belief, sexual orientation or identity, have the right to equal protection from all types of harm or abuse. This policy applies to all children and young people.
Working in partnership with children, young people, their parents and carers and other agencies is essential in promoting young people’s welfare.
