Safeguarding

At Everton Football College, the health, safety, and welfare of our students and staff is our top priority. We are committed to creating a safe, supportive, and vigilant environment where every child can thrive, both academically and personally.

Our Commitment

We are dedicated to safeguarding children and promoting their welfare.

All staff, governors, volunteers, and visitors are expected to share this commitment and maintain a safe environment.

Everyone has a responsibility to act without delay if there is any concern that a child may be at risk of harm, abuse, or neglect.

The college fosters a culture of safe practice, where inappropriate behaviour is challenged, and children are protected.

We work closely with families and partner agencies to improve outcomes for children who are vulnerable or in need, ensuring support is holistic, timely, and effective.
