Safeguarding and Child Protection

The welfare and safety of our children who attend Hateley Heath Academy is our paramount concern. We will promote the health, well-being and safety of the pupils in all we do. Our children have the right to protection, regardless of age, gender, ability, race or social background. They have a right to be safe in our school. Our setting recognises and understands its statutory responsibilities to work together in partnership with other agencies to help children grow up in a healthy and safe environment. 


Hateley Heath Academy strives to promote the welfare of our children by:

 - Creating and maintaining a safe learning environment 

 - Identifying child welfare concerns and taking appropriate action

 - Using the curriculum to enable our children to develop 'keep safe' strategies

 - Creating a listening culture to hear the child's voice

 - Operating safer recruitment and selection procedures to prevent unsuitable people working with our children
