Safeguarding & Operation Encompass

Back to News
10th Sep 2023
Our school is an Operation Encompass school.

Operation Encompass is a notification we receive when any of our children has been exposed to, or involved in any form of domestic incident. The notification is usually received at the start of the next school day.

Operation Encompass will ensure that specially trained members of staff on the Safeguarding Team are informed so that they can respond appropriately to support the safety and wellbeing of children and their parents/carers. Where necessary the school may be able to make provisions or adjustments in order to assist the young person and their family.

To find out more about Operation Encompass you can click on this link.

All SJF staff receive regular safeguarding updates and training and processes are being and reviewed and updated to take full account of the requirements of the Keeping Children Safe in Education 2023 document. 

At St John Fisher, the Safeguarding Team is:
  • Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL): Mr Barratt
  • Designated Safeguarding Deputies (DSDs): Mrs Barrett, Mrs Hadfield and Mr Murphy
  • SJF Safeguarding Link-Governors: Mr Beever (Chair of Governors) & Mrs Prestidge
