Hartlepool College is fully committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. We operate a safe recruiting and selection policy and procedure and have in place a child safeguarding policy, which can be viewed upon request.
The aims of these policies and procedures are to provide a safe environment for all students which is conducive to learning and to identify students who are suffering or likely to suffer significant harm, and taking appropriate action if required to keep them safe both in college and at home. We also contribute to effective partnerships with external agencies across the region and work closely with all support services.
