Safeguarding including Child Protection

Safeguarding of our pupils is the responsibility of all members of the School’s staff and governing body.

This section includes our up-dated Safeguarding Policy, which is based on the requirements of ‘Keeping Children Safe in Education’ (September 2023) and tailored to St Lawrence School.

The Designated Safeguarding Leads are:

Mrs Marianne Brand Head Teacher Designated Safeguarding Lead	Mr Jeremy Way Deputy Head Teacher Designated Safeguarding Lead	Mr David Hearn Assistant Head Teacher Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead
Mrs Paula Hutton Assistant Head Teacher Designated Safeguarding Lead	Mrs Abi Ralph Assistant Head Teacher Designated Safeguarding Lead	Mr David Simmonds Year 4 Leader Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead

They can be contacted via the School Office during school hours.

If you have any safeguarding concerns out of school hours, please email a St Lawrence Designated Safeguarding Lead on dsl@stlawrencehurst.co.uk.  We will monitor emails to this address and will aim to respond to concerns within 24 hours.
