    • Safeguarding

    Keeping our pupils safe is our top priority

    At Marjory Kinnon School, we are committed to providing a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment where every child is protected from harm. We understand that our pupils have additional needs and may require extra support to stay safe, both in school and beyond. We expect all staff, governors and volunteers to share this commitment to safeguarding our pupils.

    Online Safety

    The internet is a great tool for learning and communication, but it also comes with risks. At Marjory Kinnon School, we help pupils develop safe online habits that match their individual understanding and needs.

    How We Promote Online Safety:

    • Teaching pupils about safe internet use in an accessible way
    • Encouraging pupils to talk to a trusted adult if they see something upsetting
    • Using appropriate filtering and monitoring on all school devices
    • Supporting parents and carers with guidance on managing online risks at home
