Safeguarding
At Abbey View Primary Academy, we take the safety and welfare of our pupils very seriously. Safeguarding is paramount and we maintain a safeguarding culture. Staff are expected to be 'professionally curious' in order to protect pupils.
Please see our Safeguarding Statement below:

Operation Encompass
Abbey View Primary Academy takes part in a project run jointly between schools/academies and police forces. Our local force is Thames Valley Police.
Operation Encompass is the reporting of police attended domestic abuse incidents to schools, prior to the start of the next school day, where there are children in the home.
Operation Encompass will ensure that a member of the Academy staff (Designated Safeguarding Lead), known as a Key Adult, is trained to allow them to liaise with the police and to use the information that has been shared in confidence, while ensuring that the Academy is able to make provision for possible difficulties experienced by children, or their families, who have experienced a domestic abuse incident.
We are keen to offer the best support possible to all our pupils and we believe this will be extremely beneficial for all those involved.
Our Key Adult is: Mrs L Paice
