The Designated Safeguarding Leads at Springwater School are Andrew Sudron (Deputy Headteacher) and Sarah Edwards (Headteacher). If you have concerns about a child's welfare please contact them.

“Safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children is everyone’s responsibility. Everyone who comes into contact with children and their families and carers has a role to play in safeguarding children. In order to fulfil this responsibility effectively, all professionals should make sure their approach is child-centred. This means that they should consider, at all times, what is in the best interests of the child.”

Keeping Children Safe in Education, DfE, 2021
