The School's responsibility for Child Protection
All adults working at Abingdon should be aware of their responsibility to safeguard and promote the welfare of every pupil, both physical and emotional, inside and outside school. This involves ensuring that pupils are protected from significant physical or emotional harm and that there is a positive commitment to ensure the satisfactory development and growth of the individual.
Everyone working at Abingdon should be aware of and, when necessary, follow the school's Child Protection Guidelines, which are in line with the Department for Education's (DfE) and Oxfordshire Safeguarding Children Board's (OSCB) practice and procedures - available online at http://www.oscb.org.uk.
The School's Child Protection policy can be downloaded from the School's policy page.
