Frederick Bird Academy is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. We recognise that safeguarding is the responsibility of every adult within our school community.

• We ensure children in our school can share their concerns and ensure that they have a ‘voice’.
• We ensure that are staff are trained and that they are confident in recognising and responding to concerns.
• We ensure children are educated through a broad and balanced curriculum and that we offer advice and guidance which allows them to make decisions to help keep themselves safe.
• We work collaboratively, sharing information in a timely and accurate way
