Operation Encompass

In conjunction with Cheshire Police, Kingsway Primary Academy is involved with an initiative called Operation Encompass. The purpose of Operation Encompass is to safeguard and support children and young people who have been involved in, heard or witnessed a domestic abuse incident. Following such an incident, children will often arrive at school distressed, upset, worried and unprepared. Operation Encompass aims to ensure that appropriate school staff (called “Key Adults”) are made aware early enough to support children and young people in a way that means they feel safe and included.

At Kingsway Primary Academy our Key Adults are Miss Gill Rowlands (Designated safeguarding lead), Miss Janis Farr (Deputy designated safeguarding lead) and Mrs Paula Warding (Executive Head Teacher/Deputy designated safeguarding lead).

This is a valuable initiative that means we can continue to support and help children and families within our school community when they need it the most.

You can find out more by visiting www.operationencompass.org or by talking to one of our Key Adults.
