Our Approach
If you have a child protection concern, contact one of the school's designated child protection coordinators, all of whom are trained and meet regularly to discuss child wellbeing concerns. Students may also want to talk to another trusted adult such as a classroom teacher or advisor.
For child protection issues, ISA follows the advice of the Scottish government summarised as GIRFEC - Get it Right for Every Child and our child protection board policy. Within school we use a multi-tiered system of support to guide our approaches. All staff receive regular training and are aware of their child protection responsibilities.
Parents should be aware of what Scottish law says on childcare and babysitting as well as use of physical punishment.
