At Tower Road Academy, we take a whole-school approach to safeguarding, with staff and children being clear on what to do or who to go to if they have a problem. There are posters around the school, as well as in the entrance lobby and reception area, which identify the key members of staff:
Mr McCullough - Designated Safeguarding Lead
Mrs Oglesbee - Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead & Family Support Leader
Miss Potter - Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead
Mrs Ward - Attendance Leader
Mrs Cook - Safeguarding Governor
Mrs Sharpe - Safeguarding Trustee
If you have any concerns, please contact us – one of us will be available in the mornings on the playground. We can also be contacted in person via the school office, or by telephone on 01205 365922 during office hours.
Alternatively, you can report your concerns directly to Children’s Services using the number below (click the weblink for further information). If you think a child is at immediate risk of harm, contact the police on 101, or in an emergency, 999
