Safeguarding

Designated Safeguarding Leads

2024-2025 Guardians of Safety

The Guardians of Safety and Wellbeing Group has been running for a number of years at NJS and they perform a very important role. It is a group of 12 children from years 4, 5 and 6 who are mentored by Mrs Wheat to embed a strong culture of safeguarding throughout our school.

Children meet regularly to develop knowledge of how to safeguard themselves and others, in order to increase the number of children who feel safe in school and outside within their local community. They also run Doodle Club on a Wednesday lunchtime.

They work in partnership with Telford and Wrekin’s Safeguarding Children’s Board in order to teach pupils in much greater depth, about how to stay safe, how to protect themselves from harm and how to take responsibility for their own and others’ safety.

The Guardians of Safety and Wellbeing are visible and accessible to all children during break-times and lunchtimes. They are able to talk to and advise children about how they can keep themselves safe and are there to talk to any children who have worries or problems.
