Safeguarding
One Degree Academy fully recognises its responsibilities for child protection. We aim to ensure that children are effectively safeguarded from the potential risk of harm and that the safety and well-being of all children are of the highest priority in all aspects of the School’s work. In addition, we aim to maintain an ethos whereby staff, students, parents, and governors feel able to articulate concerns comfortably and safely in the knowledge that effective action will be taken as appropriate.
For all safeguarding matters, contact our Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL), Gary Collison. Please phone the school on 0203 150 1144 and request to speak to the Designated Safeguarding Lead or email safeguarding@onedegreeacadeemy.org
Our Deputy Designated Safeguarding Leads are Jo Addleton and Kirsty Pacey who can also be reached on the contact details above.
Our safeguarding policy can be found on our policies page.
