Safeguarding of Children
At Vermont School, the safeguarding of children is of utmost importance. We closely monitor the safety of our children ensure we work with outside agencies, following both Southampton and National guidelines. Staff are trained at least annually on the safeguarding of children and this is also updated with national trends and concerns.
