Meet the Safeguarding Team

Meet The Team

At Woodlands we have a team of safeguarding leads who work closely together to ensure all our children, and their families, are safe. 

Our safeguarding team can be contacted in person via the main office or by telephone on 0161 359 5698

Designated Safeguarding Leads

Overall responsibility for safeguarding sits with our DSLs. If you have any queries or concerns around the welfare of a child or any aspect of safeguarding at Woodlands, a DSL is your first point of contact.

Deputy Safeguarding Leads

Where both DSLs are unavailable, a Deputy DSL will take the lead on safeguarding across the Academy. We have a number of trained DDSLs to ensure that capacity across the Academy is maintained at all times.
