Safeguarding Information

Sir Martin Frobisher Academy is committed to every child having a safe and happy upbringing, where children are free to grow up with integrity and dignity. Anyone who joins our school will be expected to share this commitment and should any concerns arise, to be proactive in following procedures and seeking advice from appropriate agencies as outlined in our safeguarding policy.​

In school, our designated safeguarding lead is ​Mrs Haven and our deputy safeguarding leads are Miss Kelly, Mrs Odeyingbo, Mr Wood, Mr Power and Mr Girdlestone. Our Safeguarding governor is Carolyn Doyle. A list of these names is displayed in the entrance hall for visitors and parents to view and the information has also been shared with the children. ​
