Policies & Safeguarding.
Clear procedures, strong safeguarding practice and accountable systems designed to keep pupils safe and support consistent provision.
Safeguarding sits at the centre of Active Minds KS2 Provision. Our policies, procedures and risk assessments provide a clear framework for how pupils are supported, how concerns are managed and how we work responsibly with commissioning schools and families.
Move. Focus. Grow.
Safeguarding at the centre
Safeguarding is embedded in the day-to-day practice of Active Minds KS2 Provision. Clear responsibilities, consistent recording and communication with commissioning schools help ensure that concerns are identified, acted upon and shared appropriately.
Active Minds KS2 Provision has a trained Designated Safeguarding Lead responsible for overseeing safeguarding practice, responding to concerns and ensuring appropriate action is taken.
DESIGNATED SAFEGUARDING LEAD
CLEAR REPORTING & RECORDING
Staff follow clear procedures for recognising, recording and reporting concerns so that information is accurate, timely and handled appropriately.
WORKING WITH SCHOOLS
Safeguarding information is shared appropriately with commissioning schools so that pupils remain connected to the wider safeguarding systems surrounding their education.
Safe practice, clear accountability
Safe provision depends on more than individual procedures. Active Minds KS2 Provision uses clear expectations, appropriate checks, risk assessment and ongoing oversight to support consistent and responsible practice.
SAFER RECRUITMENT & CHECKS
Staff and adults working within the provision are subject to appropriate safer recruitment procedures, identity and suitability checks, and relevant safeguarding requirements before working with pupils.
SUPERVISION & PROFESSIONAL CONDUCT
Clear staff expectations, appropriate supervision and agreed procedures help ensure pupils are supported consistently and that professional boundaries remain clear.
RISK ASSESSMENT & SITE SAFETY
Activities, equipment and the physical environment are risk assessed so that potential hazards are identified, managed and reviewed as part of day-to-day practice.
