Web Filtering System
We have secured a service level agreement with Blackburn with Darwen LA to provide school with an efficient web filtering system. Our new system provides our school with weekly reporting data that supports the Senior Leadership Team with their efforts to ensure 100% effectiveness with regards to Online Safety for all stakeholders.
Additional information on Online Safety can be located in the Parents section.
All safeguarding documentation is read and understood (signed) by all the teaching staff, non-teaching staff and governors of Longshaw Community Infant School.
The Senior Leadership Team (SLT) are responsible for the recording, implementation and tracking of all statutory updates and training requirements. Copies of all training certificates can be found in individuals personnel files.
The Headteacher or members of the SLT carry out induction meetings with newly appointed staff to ensure key messages, policies and procedures are followed.
