Safeguarding at Tameside
College is about making sure everyone is safe from harm and we all have a part
to play:
- Tameside College - by providing an environment that
promotes safeguarding
- Staff - by helping to make campuses a safe place to
learn and to respond to concerns
- Learners - by acting responsibly and
reporting any concerns
We all have a right to feel safe from harm - this may be:
- Physical - being hurt or causing hurt to others
- Neglect - not being looked
after/cared for properly
- Emotionally - being belittled or degraded or being
made to feel inadequate by others
- Sexually - doing sexual things that you
don't want to do
- Bullying - in person or electronically on the internet or by
texting
What you can do
- Not cause harm or offence to others by your behaviour
- Not use social networking, mobile phones or other electronic equipment to
cause harm to others - this is bullying
- Act as you would expect to be treated
- with respect and dignity
- Enjoy your relationships on equal terms and on a
basis you are comfortable with
- If you are harmed or abused by others - report
it to a member of staff
