As a parent and the Headteacher of Eckington School, I am acutely aware of the expectations and aspirations we all hold for our children. We want them to be safe, respectful, confident, resilient, and successful in everything they do. That is why we are proud to promote The Eckington Way: a shared commitment to being safe, calm, polite and kind, prepared, and ambitious. These values are at the heart of everything we do and underpin the high standards we expect from all members of our school community.
If you have concerns about the safety of a child or young person outside school hours or during the school holidays:
If a child or young person is in immediate danger: phone 999.
If you're concerned that a child is suffering or is at risk of significant harm contact Call Derbyshire on 01629 533190 or Sheffield Safeguarding Hub on 0114 2734855
For non-urgent safeguarding enquiries email safeguarding@eckington.chorustrust.org. This email address will be checked periodically throughout school holidays, but please do not expect an immediate response.
