Child Safeguarding Policy

Harrow International School Appi is committed to keeping children safe. We expect all Harrow Appi community members including staff and visitors to share this commitment.

All academic and non-academic members of staff at Harrow Appi are subject to rigorous recruitment and vetting procedures to ensure they are suitable to work with our students. All senior staff involved in recruitment decisions are trained in ‘safe recruitment’ procedures following current international and UK best practice.

TRAINING

All Harrow Appi staff are required to undergo regular safeguarding training at the appropriate level, dependent on level of safeguarding responsibility.
