Safeguarding
At Arrow Valley First School, safeguarding our children is a priority. Every child has the right to feel safe, loved and cared for. We will always discuss any concerns we may have with parents should any arise but it is our duty of care to report safeguarding concerns to the appropriate services to support both children and families.
