Safeguarding
The safety and wellbeing of every child is at the heart of everything we do at Grafton Primary. We believe that children flourish when they feel safe, valued and listened to, and we are committed to creating an environment where every child can learn, grow and thrive with confidence.
Safeguarding is a shared responsibility. We work closely with parents, carers, staff, governors and partner agencies to ensure that every child is protected, supported and cared for, both within school and beyond the school gates.

Our safeguarding culture is built on vigilance, openness and trust. Every member of staff understands their responsibility to recognise concerns, respond appropriately and always act in the best interests of the child.
Above all, we want every child to know that they are safe, that they are listened to and that there is always a trusted adult ready to support them.
