“Education for all” is something we have always believed in. As per the “Right to Education” policy of the government we intend to provide equal opportunity to children who do not have access to proper education. It is our humble contribution to nation building and nurturing future nation builders.

St. Stephen’s School fully recognizes the contribution it can make to protect children and support pupils in school. The aim of the policy is to safeguard and promote our pupils’ welfare, safety and health by fostering an honest, open, caring and supportive climate. The pupils’ welfare is of paramount importance.

There are four main elements to our Child Protection Policy

Prevention e.g. Positive school atmosphere , teaching and pastoral support to pupils.
Protection by following agreed procedures, ensuring staff are trained and suppored to respond appropriately and sensitively to child protection concerns.
Support to pupils who may have been abused.
Working with parents helps us to ensure appropriate communications and action are undertaken.

Estabishing and maintaining the ethos where children feel secure and are encouraged to talk , listen and freely discuss .
Ensuring that children know that there are adults in the school where they can approach Lady Teacher/staff if they are worried or are in difficulty.
Ensuring every efforts is made to establish effective working relationships with parents and guardians.
Operating safe recruitment procedures and making sure that all appropriate checks are carried out on new staffs and volunteers who will work with children.
