Safeguarding

Safeguarding Children and Vulnerable Adults

Runshaw College holds as one of its highest priorities the health, safety and wellbeing of everyone involved in activities that come under the responsibility of the College and has a duty to ensure that their staff fulfils their responsibility to prevent and report any abuse discovered or suspected.

Safeguarding means:

• Promoting health & well-being
• Ensuring safety
• Protecting from abuse and neglect
• Preventing bullying and harassment
• Offering the best life chances

There is a designated Safeguarding Team at the College with a senior manager who is responsible for any safeguarding matters affecting students.  We also have a Child and Vulnerable Adults Protection Policy, which explains how the College deals with any safeguarding concerns.

A copy of the policy is available for you to download:  Child and Vulnerable Adult Protection Policy (89.82 kB)               

If you have any concerns about any issues outlined above or would like further information please contact:
