Safeguarding - Chaucer School

At Chaucer School Every Child Matters

At Chaucer we want all students to feel safe. You need to let someone know. In school you can speak to any member of staff who will ensure the information is given to the right people to deal with any bullying issues or you can fill in the form below. Don't be afraid to tell someone and don't suffer in silence.

You can report bullying through our anonymous contact by clicking here

If you wish to speak to someone in confidence you can contact us and ask member of the Safeguarding Team

Alternatively you can make an anonymous report or e-mail This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

We all have a statutory duty to safeguard all children and promote their welfare. If you have any concerns about any child or feel that something may be troubling them you should tell a member of the safeguarding team straight away, particularly if you have serious concerns about physical, emotional or sexual abuse or neglect.

Issues such as a child's appearance, poor personal hygiene, risk taking lifestyle/behaviours etc should also be reported to a member of the Safeguarding Team. We would rather have too many small referrals than miss a worrying situation. We also may have other information which added to your small concern builds into a worrying picture.

We strive to ensure all our students meet the Governments Agenda for the Every Child Matters Outcomes and believe passionately that all our students have a right to ;

Be Healthy
Stay Safe
Enjoy and Achieve
Make a positive contribution
Achieve Economic Well-Being
