Brooklands Primary School recognises its responsibilities for safeguarding children and protecting them from harm.

The safety and wellbeing of our pupils is the school’s absolute priority. Brooklands is committed to ensuring pupils stay safe through extensive safeguarding measures, collaboration with professionals and a bespoke personal development curriculum.

As part of our commitment, we ensure that children are educated on potentially risky situations, keeping them well-informed on understanding their choices and how to minimise risks, whom to contact, and enabling them to feel confident in seeking help. 

Our ethos is that the effective safeguarding of children can only be achieved by putting children at the centre of a system where we listen and hear what they say.  Every individual within our school will play their part, including working with professionals from other agencies, to meet the needs of our most vulnerable children and keep them safe.

All staff have received appropriate safeguarding training which is frequently updated and are dedicated to promoting the welfare of our pupils.

If a parent/carer has any safeguarding concerns, they should contact one of the following designated safeguarding officers as listed above.

If you have any safeguarding concerns/queries, we do have a dedicated email address which will email all of our Safeguarding Team:
