PREVENT

Prevent is part of the Government’s counter-terrorism strategy (CONTEST) and is designed to safeguard vulnerable people and communities from the threat of radicalisation and being drawn into terrorism. At South Wellfield First School, we are fully committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all its pupils. As a school, we recognise that safeguarding against radicalisation is as important as safeguarding against any other vulnerability.

All staff are expected to uphold and promote the fundamental principles of British values, including democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect, and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs. We believe that children should be given the opportunity to explore diversity and understand Britain as a multi-cultural society; everyone should be treated with respect whatever their race, gender, sexuality, religious belief, special need, or disability.
