Before children can take intellectual risks, speak with confidence, persist with difficulty or become independent learners, they need to know something more fundamental: I am safe. I am seen. I matter here. That belief begins in the earliest years and remains just as important when children enter Primary. The forms of learning change. The need to be known does not.

SAFE, VALUED, UNDERSTOOD, AND FREE TO BE THEMSELVES.

Safeguarding and well-being

Well-being is the emotional climate in which learning becomes possible. For our youngest children, safeguarding lives in every routine: the way adults respond to a cry, the calm of a naptime, the gentleness of a handover at the gate. It is woven through our relationships, our environments and our systems, so that every child, and every parent, feels held.
