Safeguarding

NMPAT is committed to the highest standards in promoting the welfare of children and adults, always protecting them from harm.

We believe that everyone, regardless of age, special needs or disability, racial/cultural heritage, religious belief or sexual orientation have the right to be protected from all types of harm and abuse.

Please note that this draft policy is currently awaiting review and rafitication by our Board of Trustees. The changes made to the policy since its last version can be seen within the document’s Version Control table.

In line with current best practice, we have moved away from issuing a blanket Letter of Assurance for all staff.

Instead, schools will receive an individual Letter of Assurance by email for each member of staff delivering teaching. These emails will be sent to the school’s or academy’s administrative email address prior to the start of teaching delivery.

Please look out for these emails and contact our office if you have any questions or concerns.
