The Governors and staff of St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School are fully committed to safeguarding all of the children who belong to the school community. The school recognises its legal and moral duty to promote the well-being of children, protect them from harm, and respond to child abuse.
Parents and carers expect the school to provide a safe, secure and caring environment in which their children can flourish. To meet this expectation, the school implements a wide range of measures and policies, including the school’s Safeguarding & Child Protection policy, the latest version of which can be downloaded from the button below, and Health & Safety Policy, which can be found on our policies page.

Wellbeing is an important factor in our community. Our wellbeing team, as well as our Primary Leadership team, play a part in showcasing different themes, each designed to help the wellbeing of everyone in our community. Since 2021 Their work has included:
- Implementing a PSHE curriculum based on three core themes – health and wellbeing, relationships and
living in the wider world. - Introducing the St Joseph’s Core Values and the Wheel of Wellbeing: Empathy, Respect, Resilience, Ambition, Adaptability and Responsibility.
- Reintroducing The Daily Mile and launching a whole school exercise programme.
- Raising money for Young Minds – a charity focusing on the wellbeing of children and young adults
You can see our Behaviour for Learning and Relationships Policy here.
The Wheel of Wellbeing, or WOW, focuses on six key themes.
- Body – being active and keeping healthy.
- Mind – promoting life-long learning and being open to trying new things.
- Spirit – looking out for others, practising random acts of kindness, giving thanks.
- People – connecting with others.
- Place – savouring our surroundings.
- Planet – looking after our planet.
