Safeguarding
Whilst the prime focus of Kivwton Park Infant School is to secure the best educational provision for our pupils, our school recognises our moral and statutory responsibility to safeguard and promote the welfare of children and to provide a caring, safe and positive environment in which they can flourish. We are therefore committed to the highest standard of safeguarding and protecting the children in our care.
