# Safeguarding

### **Safeguarding Statement**

Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility. Safeguarding at The Oaks Academy is part of a wider safeguarding system alongside children’s social care, the police and health services. This ensures that children get the right help at the right time.

Our school Safeguarding Policy can be found on our school website; [Policies \| The Oaks Academy](https://www.theoaksacademy.co.uk/statutory-info/policies)
