Safeguarding
View & download our safeguarding information
Brockhampton Primary School is committed to safeguarding all our children and promoting their welfare. We take our responsibility very seriously; we have a duty of care. We help children to identify what makes them feel safe and teach them how to stay safe through our broad and balanced curriculum.
If you have concerns that any child is at immediate risk of significant harm, you can report those concerns:
Emergency Services: call 999
Non-Emergency advice: call 101 (email: contactus@westmercia.pnn.police.uk)
Herefordshire Safeguarding Children’s Partnership referral: 01432 260800
Duty Team (out of hours service): 01905 768020
ChildLine: 0800 1111
NSPCC: 0808 800 5000
Our staff are trained annually in line with the latest updated Keeping Children Safe in Education guidelines and using CPD programmes from Herefordshire Safeguarding Children Partnership:

We have policies and procedures in place that contribute to our safeguarding commitment, including our Safeguarding and Child Protection Policy, all of which can be viewed in this section.
There may be times when we need to call Herefordshire Multi Agency Safeguarding Hub to ask for advice or even make a referral about a child. We ask that you respect our professionalism should we need to do this; in some cases, we may need to do this without seeking parental involvement to help ensure the safety and well-being of a child.
If you have any concerns, or would like to speak to a member of staff, please call the school office on 01885 483238:
