Safeguarding

TheLightBulb is committed to improving and promoting best practice throughout the organisation and ensuring that the wellbeing of learners is safeguarded, that they are protected from harm (including radicalisation and extremism) and feel that TheLightBulb provides them with a safe environment.  This will in turn promote opportunities for them to thrive and benefit from their learning experience. TheLightBulb believes that all individuals have a right to freedom from abuse and harm and promotes this throughout the organisation.

 

The organisation has ultimate responsibility for learner protection and will ensure that the arrangements for safeguarding learners are effective, robust and reviewed on a regular basis.  As such two members of staff have been designated as Safeguarding Personnel.

 

In the event that you either have or want to report a safeguarding issue, please contact either Suzanne Tilling, Safeguarding Lead, or Andrea Gregory, Designated Safeguarding Officer, on 01268 270648 or by email [email protected] , [email protected] or [email protected]
