Safeguarding at FUS
At Ferndown Upper School, the governors and the staff recognise that the welfare of a child is paramount and we take our responsibility to safeguard and promote the welfare of the children and young people in our care extremely seriously.
Safeguarding means:
- protecting children from abuse and maltreatment
- preventing harm to children’s health or development
- ensuring children grow up with the provision of safe and effective care
- taking action to enable all children and young people to have the best outcomes.
