At Fosse Way we want to work with parents and carers to ensure the safety of all students. The safeguarding team will ensure that you are kept up to date with relevant safeguarding information that you might find helpful when supporting your child’s safety at home and out in the community. We will be sending out factsheets relating to any new safeguarding information via Class Dojo.
