As well as the EYFS curriculum, our children are supported to stay safe and develop safe behaviours with a series of sessions across the year that focus on personal safety and digital safety. We use the NSPCC's PANTS Rule resources as well as Childnet's Smartie the Penguin sessions. safeguarding is an ongoing aspect of our children's learning.
