The Childs Wishes 

Where there is a safeguarding concern the Governing Body and school leaders will ensure that the child’s wishes and feelings are taken into account when determining what action to take and what services to provide. Systems will be in place for children to express their views and give feedback.

The Governing Body will ensure that staff members do not agree confidentiality and always act in the best interests of the child.
