Safeguarding at Fielding

At Fielding Primary, keeping children safe is our top priority. Staff and governors understand that children may face challenges such as:

• Abuse
• Domestic violence
• Substance misuse
• Bullying
• Mental health issues
• Radicalisation

We know safeguarding concerns can arise anywhere, so our staff stay alert and responsive.

Through our curriculum, we teach children how to stay safe and happy. We encourage them to speak up about any worries—big or small—with a trusted adult at home, at school, or through Childline.

Policy

Peer-on-Peer Sexual Abuse and Harassment

At Fielding, peer-on-peer sexual abuse and harassment is never acceptable and will not be tolerated.

Sexual harassment includes any unwanted behaviour of a sexual nature, whether online or offline. It can make pupils feel intimidated, degraded, or unsafe, and may lead to more serious abuse if not addressed.

Examples include:

• Sexual comments or jokes
• Deliberate physical contact
• Inappropriate online behaviour (e.g. sharing images or messages, sexting, coercion)

We take all concerns seriously and follow clear procedures outlined in our [Safeguarding Policy – see Section 21].

Need Support?

📞 NSPCC Helpline: 0800 136 663
This helpline offers confidential advice and support to children, parents, and professionals. It can also help with reporting abuse to the police.

Domestic Abuse – Operation Encompass

We work with the Metropolitan Police and Children’s Services through Operation Encompass to support pupils affected by domestic abuse.

When police attend a domestic incident involving a child, our Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) is notified. This allows us to offer timely and appropriate support in school.

For more information, visit the Met Police website.

Prevent Strategy

Prevent Strategy

Prevent is a government initiative aimed at stopping people from becoming involved in terrorism or supporting extremist ideas.

At Fielding, many of the ways we help children grow into respectful, responsible citizens also support the Prevent strategy.

Anti-bullying 

Anti-Bullying at Fielding

Keeping children safe from bullying is a key part of our RSHE and Values-based curriculum, which promotes respect, tolerance, and kindness.

In a recent safeguarding review, pupils said bullying is very rare. They could clearly explain what bullying is, how it differs from name-calling, and what to do if it happens.

How Pupils Can Report Bullying

• Speak to a trusted adult
• Use the class worry box
• Email: worrybox@fielding.ealing.sch.uk
• Talk to an Anti-Bullying Ambassador

Bullying outside of school can also be reported.
Parents should raise concerns with the class teacher in the first instance.

Anti-Bullying Advice for Parents

If your child is experiencing bullying:

• Listen calmly and thank them for telling you.
• Reassure them it’s not their fault and that you’ll support them.
• Ask open questions to understand what’s happening.
• Keep notes of what your child shares.

Working with the School

• Speak to your child’s class teacher as soon as possible.
• Bring any notes or evidence to the meeting.
• Agree on support strategies and follow up regularly.
• Avoid discussing the issue with other parents or on social media.

Ongoing Support

• Help your child build confidence through enjoyable activities.
• Encourage friendships with kind, supportive peers.
• Identify trusted adults at school they can talk to.
• Check in regularly on their wellbeing.
