Staying Safe
Safeguarding
Safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children is everyone's responsibility. Downsview endeavours to provide a safe and welcoming environment where children are respected and valued. Child protection forms part of the school's safeguarding responsibilities.
If parents/carers have any concern about the health and safety of their child at Downsview, they should share this information with an appropriate member of staff.
