Safeguarding

Longford Primary School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people.

Early Help

We place a strong emphasis on early intervention in order to help ensure that issues do not escalate and become more complex or difficult to manage. All school staff are trained to recognise when families may benefit from Early Help. The school works in collaboration with families to improve outcomes for children, signposting them to a range of support available if needed. 

More information about Early Help can be found here.
