The Health and Safety Governors met on 4th June. They began by reviewing the action plan following the completion of the local authority safeguarding audit and were pleased to note that most actions have now been completed.
They spent time examining the Modified Timetable protocol, ensuring they fully understood how best practice involves engaging outside professionals and parents at every stage of the process. Governors also spoke with Mr McFarland (SENDCo) and several pupils with complex needs to explore their knowledge and understanding of safeguarding, particularly for more vulnerable learners. They were reassured with the children’s responses.
In addition, the Governors met with a Teaching Assistant to gain her perspective on the recent serious fire incident and to understand how policy and procedures operated during a real emergency. They were encouraged to hear that she felt the event was handled safely and effectively, especially given the seriousness of the situation.
Finally, the Governors spent time on the playground gathering parent voice. We look forward to analysing the responses from parents at the next meeting.
