Safeguarding

At Lytchett Matravers Primary School, the safety and well-being of our children and their families is our priority.  This page contains key information about safeguarding procedures at our school.

If you have any concerns about the safety or well-being of a child, please speak to a member of staff in confidence.  There will always be a Child Protection Officer available to speak to you.  These officers are also called 'Designated Senior Leaders for Child Protection' (DSL/DDSLs).
