Safeguarding
At Wray Common Primary School we are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. As defined by Keeping Children Safe in Education (2021), safeguarding the children we work with means that we work to ensure that we:
- protect children from maltreatment
- prevent the impairment of children’s mental and physical health or development
- ensure that children grow up in circumstances consistent with the provision of safe and effective care, and
- take action to enable all children to have the best outcomes.
All of the adults who work with children at Wray Common Primary School have a responsibility to safeguard their welfare. Our Team Around the Child approach helps us to promote a culture of safeguarding in which we expect all staff, governors, volunteers and visitors to actively participate.
Our Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) Team are:
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
Mr L Murphy Headteacher |
Mr T Little Deputy Headteacher |
Miss P Kober (DSL) Assistant Headteacher – Inclusion & Safeguarding Lead |
Mr R Durston Team Around the Child Champion (TACC) & Emotional Literacy Support Assistant (ELSA) |
We work closely with families and, where appropriate, relevant external agencies, to collaboratively ensure children’s wellbeing.
If you have a concern about a child’s welfare, please record your concern, and any observations or conversations heard, and report to one the DSL Team as soon as possible on the same day. Under no circumstances should you attempt to conduct your own investigation. If your concern arises outside of school working hours, please email dsl@wray-common.surrey.sch.uk
Should your concerns relate to the actions or behaviour of another adult in school, including a member of staff, please report this to the Headteacher (Mr L. Murphy), or the DSL (Miss P. Kober) in their absence. If your concern relates to the Headteacher, please report your concern to the Executive Principal (Mrs S Wardlow).
