16. Safeguarding Contacts and Emergency Information

We ensure that all stakeholders have access to key safeguarding contacts for both routine and emergency situations. The following agencies provide essential safeguarding support and intervention:

· Oxfordshire MASH (Multi-Agency Safeguarding Hub) / Children’s Services For urgent concerns about a child’s safety. MASH brings together police, health, education and social care to identify risks and make decisions at the earliest stage.

· OSCB (Oxfordshire Safeguarding Children Partnership) Provides local safeguarding procedures, training and multi-agency guidance.

· LADO (Local Authority Designated Officer) For concerns or allegations about adults working with children.

· Police 101 for non-emergency concerns; 999 for emergencies.

These contacts support our commitment to multi-agency safeguarding effectiveness, as outlined in local OSCB guidance and reinforced in the Ofsted 2025 framework.
