Our vision and values statements describe what we want for every member of our community and what we believe in:

"I will be the best that I can be and I will allow myself to love and to be loved, safe in the knowledge that the rest will follow."

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonour others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 1 Corinthians 13:4-7

At Swinford School we recognise the moral and statutory responsibility of every member of staff to safeguard and promote the welfare of all pupils.  We will be alert to the signs of abuse and maltreatment and will follow our procedures to ensure that children receive effective support, protection and justice.
