• The welfare of our students is paramount in all the work we do and in all the decisions we take. All students, regardless of age, disability, gender reassignment, race, religion or belief, sex, or sexual orientation have an equal right to protection from all types of harm or abuse.

• Some students are additionally vulnerable because of the impact of previous experiences, their level of dependency, communication needs or other issues. 

• Working in partnership with students, their families, carers and other agencies is essential in promoting their welfare.
