St Mary’s Catholic Primary School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. All staff and governors must ensure that they are aware of these procedures.

As part of our commitment to safeguarding, all teaching staff at St Mary’s undertook  refresher Prevent training in September 2019.

During 2019-20 we had a visit from Northamptonshire Police and Key stage 2 children took part in their Blue Butterfly Project. Our school has embraced this and staff wear the Blue Butterfly as a reminder that children should share their worries.
