Safeguarding of children
Safeguarding is of the utmost importance to us at Clayton-le-Woods Church of England Primary School. As a school, we take seriously any concerns raise about the safety of all members of the school community. You can find our policies regarding Safeguarding here
If you have any issues related to child protection, please contact the schools' Designated Safeguarding Leads: Mrs S Bashora or Mr P Howard, or if the concern is an emergency, the police should be contacted using 999.

In conjunction with Lancashire Police, Clayton-le-Woods C. of E. Primary School is involved in a national initiative called “Operation Encompass”. The purpose of Operation Encompass is to safeguard and support children and young people who have been involved in, heard or witnessed a domestic abuse incident.
Following an incident, children will often arrive at school distressed, upset, worried and unprepared. Operation Encompass aims to ensure that appropriate school staff are made aware early enough to help and support children and young people in a way that means they feel safe and included.
This is a valuable initiative that means we can help and support students and their families within our school when they need us most.
You can find out more information by visiting the Operation Encompass website (click the button below) or by contacting Mr P Howard at school.
