At Calday Grange Grammar School, we are fully committed to ensuring the safety and well-being of our students. It is their right to be safe in school and our duty to ensure this.
As part of safeguarding work, we work in partnership with colleagues from other agencies. This includes colleagues from school nursing and other medical professionals, social care, police, children’s centres, therapists, paediatricians and other agencies.
Safeguarding concerns can also be reported directly to the Integrated Front Door at Wirral Social Care. Their telephone number is: 0151 606 2008.
We have a fully trained safeguarding team at Calday that work with families and the other professionals to keep children safe. We absolutely insist that safeguarding is the duty of everybody here.
