Safeguarding
At Woodlands Schools and Little Acorns Nursery, we are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of our young people.
To achieve this we ensure the continuous development and improvement of robust safeguarding processes and procedures that promote a culture of safeguarding within our staff and volunteers.
We expect all our staff to undertake a full enhanced Disclosure, Barring Service check and all other relevant checks in line with current legislation.
