Safeguarding at Swanwick Hall School

At Swanwick Hall, we take our responsibilities in safeguarding extremely seriously.  An experienced team, led by Mr Worrall and Mrs Vladimirovs, the designated lead and deputy lead respectively, are on hand each day to ensure that our young people are as safe and happy as possible. 

Where concerns are raised about students’ safety or well-being we will do our best to help and support them, but there might be situations where we may need to pass these concerns onto the local Children’s Services Department and appropriate external agencies for consideration and support.  

We are all governed by the DFE document: Keeping children safe in education – Statutory guidance for schools and colleges.  This document contains information on what schools and colleges should do and sets out the legal duties with which schools and colleges must comply in order to keep children safe.  

If you are concerned about the safeguarding of any students within the school you should report this to safeguarding@swanwickhall.ttct.co.uk

If you have an allegation against any member of staff, this should be reported directly to Mrs Howard (enquiries@swanwickhall.ttct.co.uk marked FAO Mrs Howard – confidential).

Operation Encompass

Our school works in partnership with Operation Encompass, which is a police and education early information safeguarding partnership enabling schools to offer immediate support to children and young people who have experienced domestic abuse.

Operation Encompass communicates with the school’s Designated Safeguarding Lead (known as a Key Adult) before the start of the next school day, after an incident of police attending a scene of domestic abuse where there are children related to either of the adult parties involved. This sharing of information enables appropriate support to be given depending on the needs and wishes of the child or young person
