Policies & Procedures

HeadStart is dedicated to providing a safe, equitable, and high-quality educational environment for all. The foundational policies provided here outline our procedures for safeguarding, health and safety, inclusion, and community feedback. These documents ensure we maintain a consistent and transparent approach to the welfare of our entire school community.

Safeguarding Policy

Every adult working in or on behalf of HeadStart shares a fundamental responsibility to safeguard and promote the welfare of our children. This commitment includes:

  • Providing a secure, nurturing environment where children can safely learn and thrive.
  • Proactively identifying children who may need additional help and taking appropriate action.
  • Understanding how to recognise and protect children who are at risk of significant harm.

Safeguarding is a collective responsibility. All staff, volunteers, parents, and guardians have a legal and moral duty to uphold the welfare of our students and must report any concerns regarding unsafe practices or a child’s safety.

We strictly prohibit bullying and harassment, ensuring a safe environment where the dignity of every individual is protected—irrespective of ethnicity, age, religion, disability, gender, sexuality, or background.

By collaborating with families, teachers, and experts, we create tailored educational pathways that empower students to flourish.

Complaints Policy

This policy outlines the appropriate channels for addressing complaints and concerns within the school. While most issues can be quickly resolved through a simple conversation with a homeroom teacher or an admin team member, this policy details the formal escalation process for unresolved matters.

The procedure for addressing concerns varies depending on whether you are a student, parent, staff member, or visitor. Please refer to the policy document for specific guidance.

  • If your complaint relates to a Senior Leader who would normally handle the issue, you will need to escalate the matter directly to their line manager (refer to Appendix 3 of the policy).
  • If your complaint concerns the front office team or support staff, please address it to our School Manager, Khun Chajeen, at [email protected].
