Tondu Primary School

At Tondu, we are passionate about and committed to the welfare of our children and we expect all our staff and visitors to be committed as well. We ensure that consistent, effective safeguarding practices are in place to support staff, children and families. All staff are trained in safeguarding procedures. We have robust policies in place, which support the wellbeing of both children and staff. These which underpin our ethos and values.

As a rights respecting school, we fully uphold the Articles of the United Nations Convention for Rights of the Child (UNCRC). At Tondu, we have trained Child Protection Officers who process any concerns about children.

All children and young people have the right to grow up free from harm, neglect and abuse. If you are worried about a child or young person, please contact the school and ask to speak to a Child Protection Officer.

It will still ensure that all children become the best that they can be so that they can lives fulfilling lives as they grow into adulthood.

The curriculum content will be learned through Areas of Learning and Experience. Within each AOLE, there will be essential skills and experiences that need to be taught in order to ensure children receive a balanced education. These are the 'What Matters' statements.
