Safeguarding and Wellbeing

Our aim at St Aidan's is to support every pupils to achieve their full potential and we believe that young people achieve best when they feel happy, safe and cared for.

As well as providing the best learning environments and support for our students, we also operate a pastoral system that ensures they know where to seek any extra help they need, both in and outside the classroom.

Staff are also supported by Mrs J Keane, our Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCO), and Designated Safeguarding Lead Mrs J Knight.
