Safeguarding for Children
Sometimes life is confusing and makes all of us (grownups and children) feel worried. When this happens, we at Totternhoe CE Academy are here to offer help and support to children and families.
If you, as a child or young person, has a concern or worry, this support can be found by talking to your class teacher or Mrs Mitchelmore or Mrs Bates, (as seen on our posters), OR any other adult in school. Mrs van Vuuren and Mrs Tebbutt are also specially trained to listen to you too.
‘Remember you can speak to any adult, at any time about anything that is worrying you.’
You can also get support from the organisations listed below.
If a parent or member of staff is concerned about a child then they could also seek advice from the organisations below and they should also notify Mrs Mitchelmore or Mrs Bates at the school, so that support can be offered and put in place where appropriate.
