Safeguarding

Erdington Hall Primary School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. We expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment and we work closely with the Birmingham Safeguarding Children Board and actively support the Government’s Prevent Agenda to counter radicalism and extremism.
We have a number of policies and procedures in place that contribute to our safeguarding commitment, including our Safeguarding and Child Protection Policy which can be viewed below, along with our Trust Safeguarding Strategy. All our other Trust Policies can be viewed on our Policies page.
The Safeguarding team can be contacted by telephone on 0121 464 3122.
