--- title: "Safeguarding Policies" url: "https://www.bridge.kent.sch.uk/safeguarding/safeguarding-policies" school: "Bridge & Patrixbourne CEP School" --- # Safeguarding Policies The governors and staff of Bridge & Patrixbourne CEP School take seriously our responsibility to safeguard and promote the welfare and wellbeing of all children entrusted in our care. Our school is a community and all those directly connected (staff, governors, parents, families and pupils) have an essential role to play in making it safe and secure. We welcome suggestions and comments that will contribute to this process. This can be done through several channels, for example, meeting with members of staff, contacting school governors, through feedback during parent consultations and parent questionnaires. We recognise the importance of providing an ethos and environment within school that will help children to feel safe, secure and respected, encourage them to talk openly and enable them to feel confident that they will be listened to. ### Online Safety Documents Acceptable Use Policy for Pupils [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bridge-patrixbourne-cep-school-2/files/documents/Acceptable_Use_Policy_-_Pupils_(April_2021)_AGREED.pdf) Parent Factsheet - County Lines 150 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bridge-patrixbourne-cep-school-2/files/documents/County_lines_-_parent_factsheet_wYV4En1.pdf) Parent Factsheet - Cyber Flashing 213 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bridge-patrixbourne-cep-school-2/files/documents/Cyberflashing_-_parent_factsheet.pdf) Parent Factsheet - Fortnite 321 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bridge-patrixbourne-cep-school-2/files/documents/Fortnite_parent_factsheet_JUTRlZj.pdf) Parent Factsheet - Instagram 245 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bridge-patrixbourne-cep-school-2/files/documents/Instagram_parent_factsheet_gA5LFcB.pdf) Parent Factsheet - Loot boxes; skin betting 221 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bridge-patrixbourne-cep-school-2/files/documents/Loot_boxes_skins_betting_parent_factsheet_xZK1SS7.pdf) Parent Factsheet - Minecraft 246 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bridge-patrixbourne-cep-school-2/files/documents/Minecraft_-_parent_factsheet_-_January_2022.pdf) Parent Factsheet - Roblox 265 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bridge-patrixbourne-cep-school-2/files/documents/Roblox_parent_factsheet_Dec_2022.pdf) Parent Factsheet - Snapchat 217 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bridge-patrixbourne-cep-school-2/files/documents/Snapchat_parent_factsheet_July_2022_S1uPGWl.pdf) Parent Factsheet - Tiktok 247 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bridge-patrixbourne-cep-school-2/files/documents/TikTok_parent_factsheet_EmILKgX.pdf) Parent Factsheet - Twitch 218 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bridge-patrixbourne-cep-school-2/files/documents/Twitch_parent_factsheet_July_2022.pdf) Parent Factsheet - WhatsApp 140 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bridge-patrixbourne-cep-school-2/files/documents/WhatsApp_parent_factsheet.pdf) Screen Time - Parent Factsheet 194 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bridge-patrixbourne-cep-school-2/files/documents/Parent_factsheet_-_screen_time.pdf) ### Safeguarding & Welfare - [The Safeguarding & Welfare Team](https://www.bridge.kent.sch.uk/safeguarding/the-safeguarding-welfare-team) - [Attendance & Punctuality](https://www.bridge.kent.sch.uk/safeguarding/attendance-punctuality) - [Medical Needs](https://www.bridge.kent.sch.uk/safeguarding/medical-needs) - [→ Administering Medication](https://www.bridge.kent.sch.uk/safeguarding/medical-needs/administering-medication) - [→ Headlice](https://www.bridge.kent.sch.uk/safeguarding/medical-needs/headlice-info-for-parents) - [Online Safety](https://www.bridge.kent.sch.uk/safeguarding/online-safety) - [Operation Encompass](https://www.bridge.kent.sch.uk/safeguarding/operation-encompass) - [Prevent](https://www.bridge.kent.sch.uk/safeguarding/prevent) - [Safeguarding Policies](https://www.bridge.kent.sch.uk/safeguarding/safeguarding-policies) - [Smart Phones & Screen Use](https://www.bridge.kent.sch.uk/safeguarding/smart-phone-free-childhood) ![Bridge & Patrixbourne CEP School](https://files.schudio.com/bridge-patrixbourne-cep-school-2/images/logo/Untitled_design_(13).png) #### Bridge & Patrixbourne CEP School Conyngham Lane Canterbury Kent CT4 5JX 01227 830276 #### Quick Links - [Accelerated Reader](https://login.renaissance.com/12d2c70d-6700-47cc-8697-963c18493e4b/student?state=15f6cdf1-f2d2-403e-9e79-11dbb19009d1) - [BromCom ](https://cloudmis.bromcom.com/Nucleus/Framework/Login.aspx) - [Bromcom Help Centre](https://www.docs.bromcom.com) - [BromCom Training Portal](https://bridgeandpatrixbourne.bromcom.efrontlearning.com/) #### Useful Links - [Admission](https://www.bridge.kent.sch.uk/key-information/admissions) - [Contact Us](https://www.bridge.kent.sch.uk/contact) - [Inclusion & SEN](https://www.bridge.kent.sch.uk/key-information/inclusion-sen) - [PTFA](https://www.bridge.kent.sch.uk/parents/ptfa) - [Safeguarding](https://www.bridge.kent.sch.uk/safeguarding/the-safeguarding-welfare-team) - [Term Dates](https://www.bridge.kent.sch.uk/key-information/term-dates) #### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/bridge.patrixbourne.school) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/bridge.patrixbourne.school/) © Copyright 2025–2026 Bridge & Patrixbourne CEP School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.bridge.kent.sch.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
