Our Standards
Peterborough College and all of The Inspire Education Group (IEG) is committed to a whole organisation approach to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all its students, staff, volunteers, visitors, contractors and partners.
For more information, or to report a safeguarding concern, contact the Safeguarding Team.
All of our staff are regularly trained in Safeguarding and Prevent and we have a dedicated and experienced Safeguarding Team who are here to support our students who are at risk of harm.
Peterborough College adheres to all statutory guidance and legislation in regard to safeguarding, but we pride ourselves on going above and beyond to make College a safe, happy and thriving environment for all.
Visit the Digital Parenting website for advice and information about the latest digital technologies and the challenges children and teenagers might face in their digital world.
The Children’s Commissioner, Dame Rachel de Souza, together with a group of 16-21 year olds, have produced a guide for parents to share the harms/issues children can face in the online world and what to do about them and where to get advice and help. The guide is useful for anyone whether the are parents or not.
Criminal exploitation of children and young people is an increasing area of concern both locally and nationally. This pocket guide on Child Criminal Exploitation is aimed at children and young people but is equally as informative for parents and carers. Please have a read through and if you have any questions or concerns relating to this get in touch with us on either the safeguarding phone number or email listed on this page.
