At The Basildon Academies, keeping children safe and helping them to thrive is at the heart of everything we do.

We know that family life can sometimes be challenging. If you or your child need help, support, or advice, we are here. No problem is too big or too small, and we will always support families with kindness, care and without judgement.

If you have any concerns about the safety or wellbeing of a child, please contact a member of our safeguarding team. We are here to help:

We work closely with a range of services to make sure children and families get the right help at the right time. This may include school nurses, health professionals, counsellors, mentors, family support workers and Children's Social Care.

Safeguarding is led by our Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL), J.Richards, supported by S.Harper-Penman, Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead.
