Radicalisation Policy
Introduction
Campion School is fully committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all our students. As a school we recognise that safeguarding against radicalisation is no different from safeguarding against any other area of vulnerability. We expect all staff to uphold and promote the fundamental principles of British values. These include democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs. All staff recognise that safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility irrespective of the role they undertake or whether their role has direct contact or responsibility for pupils or not. In March 2015, new statutory duties were placed on schools by the Counter Terrorism and Security Act (2015) which means they must work to prevent children being drawn into extremism.
