SAFEGUARDING KEEPING OUR PUPILS SAFE - ‘SAFEGUARDING IS EVERYONE’S RESPONSIBILITY, EVERY DAY’. At CFS, our first and foremost priority is to keep our pupils safe and healthy. All members of staff share the responsibility for this and are guided by the Designated Safeguarding Lead (Mr Lee Hardwick) and two Deputy Designated Safeguarding Leads (Mrs Cathryn Halton and Mrs Hannah Tulley). As Principal, Mrs Louise New takes overall responsibility for the safety and welfare of all pupils and staff in the School. Under the new OFSTED framework safeguarding is a key indicator of what constitutes a good school.
