Safeguarding Information

CEOP is here to keep children safe from sexual abuse and grooming online. 

You can make a report directly to the CEOP Safety Centre by clicking on the Click CEOP button if something has happened online which has made you feel unsafe, scared or worried. This might be from someone you know in real life, or someone you have only ever met online. CEOP take all reports seriously and we will do everything we can to keep you safe. 

As well as making a report to the CEOP Safety Centre, the CEOP Education website has information and advice to help you if something has happened to you online. Are you being bullied? 

CEOP are unable to respond to reports about bullying but if you’re being bullied and would like to talk to someone in confidence right now you can speak to Childline on 0800 1111 or talk to them online – no worry is too big or too small.

Safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children is best defined by the government as:

'Protecting children from maltreatment; preventing impairment of children's mental health and physical health or development; ensuring that children grow up in circumstances consistent with the provision of safe and effective care; and taking action to enable all children to have the best outcomes'. (Keep Children Safe in Education: Statutory Guidance for Schools and Colleges (DfE 2020). More information from the government can be found at:

Our schools will take any reasonable action to ensure the safety of its pupils. In cases where the school has reason to be concerned that a child may be subject to ill-treatment, neglect or any other forms of abuse, staff will have no alternative but to follow Derby and Derbyshire Safeguarding Children Procedures. Derbyshire Police are also working under a new intitiative with Derbyshire County Council and will notify the school of every incident reported to them of domestic abuse where a child is known to be living in the household. This is to help schools support children and their families and may mean talking to pupils about their experiences, classroom discussion and school activities. This school is committed to protecting children and working with partners to stop domestic abuse.

Bradley Church of England Primary School are committed to stopping Domestic Abuse.If we receive a Domestic Abuse notification from the police we will routinely monitor the child's welfare and engage with partner agencies when required. This forms part of our commitment to safeguarding all the children and young people.

Safeguarding is everyone’s business, and we take the safeguarding of our pupils very seriously.

In school, Nicola Foulds - Head Teacher - is our Designated Safeguarding Lead.
