At Arnold House, we are fully committed to ensuring the safety, wellbeing, and protection of every pupil in our care.

Safeguarding

Our Commitment

Our aim is to create a nurturing, supportive environment where all children feel safe, respected, and able to thrive.

Arnold House provides a secure and inclusive community in which pupils can learn and grow with confidence. We believe every child has the right to feel protected, heard, and supported – and we work tirelessly to uphold those rights.

We expect all members of our school community – including staff, governors, parents, and visitors – to share in our commitment to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children.

Safeguarding Children
Together

Working In Partnership

We recognise that safeguarding is most effective when we work in partnership with parents, carers, and external agencies. Together, we support the development and wellbeing of each child – both at school and beyond.
