Safeguarding at Haydon Abbey

At Haydon Abbey, safeguarding our pupils is our top priority. We are committed to creating a safe, caring and supportive environment where every child feels valued and protected. Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility — and we work closely with families and professionals to make sure our children receive the right help at the right time.

Reporting a Concern

If you ever have a concern about a child’s safety or wellbeing, you can always speak to one of our Designated Safeguarding Leads (DSLs) in school.

You can contact us via the school office on 01296 482278 — we are always here to listen and offer support.

However, please remember that anyone can raise a safeguarding concern directly with Buckinghamshire Council if they believe a child may be at risk of harm.
