Safeguarding
Our children’s welfare is of paramount importance to all members of the Park Hall family. Together we ensure that we always act in the best interests of the child. We aim to ensure that all children achieve the best outcomes and know that they are cared for and supported in their learning journey.
We work in close partnership with our families and other agencies to ensure that together we make a difference. All members of the Park Hall family take their duty to safeguard pupils extremely seriously. If you have a concern about the welfare of a pupil, please discuss this with the team however, anyone can make a referral if you have reasonable cause to suspect that a child has suffered or is likely to suffer significant harm, you can call the Integrated Front Door on 01782 235100 (Mon-Thurs, 8.30am – 5pm and Fri, 8.30am – 4.30pm), or call the Emergency Duty Team on 01782 234234 if you are calling out of office hours, at weekends or on bank holidays.
