BELFAST HIGH SCHOOL
SAFEGUARDING
At Belfast High School, pupil safety is our first priority. If you have a concern about the safety or wellbeing of a pupil you can speak to any member of staff. If the matter concerns child protection, the member of staff will:
​
-
listen to you and accept what is said
-
record what you have told them
-
explain that they will share the information with the Designated Teacher or Deputy Designated Teachers
