To contact the school about a safeguarding or child protection concern, please use the email address dsl@gossopsgreen.org.uk Should you be unable to report concerns to the DSL team at school, you can contact West Sussex Safeguarding Children Partnership:
Operation Encompass is a police and education early information sharing partnership, enabling schools to offer immediate support for children and young people experiencing domestic abuse. We are an Operation Encompass School so our Designated Safeguarding Leads get a notification when there has been a police-attended incident at the home of any of our children. This allows us to provide immediate support to those children and families and means that children are better safeguarded against the short, medium and long-term effects of domestic abuse. Operation Encompass is a charitable organisation set up in 2011, which has since enabled effective interventions to many thousands of children who’ve experienced domestic abuse. The creators of Operation Encompass are working tirelessly to ensure that police and schools throughout the country are able to address victims of domestic abuse consistently and coherently.Safeguarding - for Parents and Carers
The Designated Safeguarding Leader at this school is the Deputy Principal, Mr M Warwick. The Principal (Mrs S Dunne), Assistant Principal (Mrs D Bullen), our Nurture Team Leader (Mrs J Browne) and Nurture Assistant (Mrs C Bosher) are also fully trained Deputy Safeguarding Leaders. Please report any concerns directly to one of these members of staff.

All staff who deal with children have a very clear duty to report any concern they may have about any child’s well-being. There are well-established national procedures for dealing with such a situation. All staff, governors and visiting instructors have been cleared by the Disclosure and Barring Service as having no record which would prevent them from working with children. If a child is subject to a court order, then parents or carers must make that known to the Principal.
