Safeguarding children is everyone’s responsibility. Child protection means protecting children from physical, emotional or sexual abuse or neglect. It also means helping children to grow up into confident, healthy and happy adults.

Consequently, we have a duty to follow up and/or refer any concerns that we may have about a child in our care.

If, during the holidays or weekends, you are concerned about the safety and welfare of a child in Leicester City, then please contact Leicester City Council or the Police, on these telephone numbers.

You can also share any concerns at safeguarding@st-patricks.leicester.sch.uk or with our Trust using the email address: safeguarding@aquinas-cmat.org
