Safeguarding at Chollerton First School

Our top priority at Chollerton First School is to keep our children safe. To ensure this, we have two members of staff and one governor who have received advanced safeguarding training.

It is a legal requirement for each school to have a named Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) for Child Protection. At our school, we have two trained DSL teachers:

• Mrs. Glenda Glenwright - Head Teacher & DSL
• Mrs. Sandie Ross - Senior Teacher & Assistant DSL

The Local Authority Designated Officer (LADO) is Louise Prudhoe. She can be contacted at:

• Phone: 01670 623979 or 01670 624888
• Email: LADO@northumberland.gov.uk

Our DSLs follow the guidance outlined in:

• The DfE document: Keeping Children Safe in Education
• The Interagency Procedures produced by the Northumberland Safeguarding Children Board (NSCB)
