All our staff receive safeguarding training regularly and understand and follow our policies relating to safeguarding children. 

We encourage all children, through class conversations and assemblies, to speak out and stay safe. Children at The Bewbush Academy know that they can talk to any member of staff and they will be listened to and taken seriously about their concerns.
