Safeguarding

Welcome to St Helen's Catholic Primary School

 

All visitors and parents are warmly welcome to our school. Our priority is to ensure our school remains a safe place for children, staff and all other members of the school community.

Visitors to the school should sign in at the office where you will be given a visitor's badge, which you should wear while in school. Please remember to sign out when leaving.

We ensure all adults who work or volunteer at our school are subject to the appropriate security and appointment checks including Disclosure and Barring System (DBS) checks.

If you have any concerns, we will always listen to them and seek to address them in line with our complaints policy.
