Safeguarding

All staff at Gunness and Burringham Primary School have a duty of care to keep children safe. Staff receive regular training with a focus on protecting children and understand the signs of abuse. 

 All staff have recently engaged in Mental Health and Wellbeing Training, this is a huge priority at our school and staff are well equipped to signpost children and support both families and children in the most appropriate way.

 There will be a Designated Safeguarding Lead on the school site at all times and they will take charge in the event of a safeguarding concern.

Mrs Luan Sowerby
