Safeguarding Statement

Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility.  Walton High is committed to ensuring that all our children and young people are safe and feel safe; that children, parents and carers, and staff are able to talk about any safeguarding concerns and feel assured that they will be listened to; and that all staff and volunteers are aware of and implement safeguarding procedures and guidance, including what to do if they suspect a child or young person may be experiencing, or at risk of, harm.  We ensure a child-centred approach and consider what is in the best interest of the child at all times.  We expect everyone who works in our school to share this commitment. This applies to all adults, including volunteers, working in or on behalf of Walton High.
