Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility
We all have a statutory duty to “safeguard and promote the welfare of children” and the safety of our young people is paramount to us. At Phoenix Park and Sevenhills Academy we have robust safeguarding practice and procedures, overseen by a very experienced Safeguarding Team.
