Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead

5 days ago


Leeds, Leeds, United Kingdom Co-op Academy Leeds Full time

Safeguarding and protecting the welfare of children and young people is at the heart of everything we do, and we're looking for a suitably experienced Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead to oversee and drive forward this provision at Co-op Academy Leeds.

Our recent 'Good' grading at Ofsted praised the work of the safeguarding team at Co-op Academy Leeds in ensuring that all pupils feel safe whilst at school.

A confident communicator, you'll be an expert in your field, making referrals to, and liaising with our partners in the Police and Local Authority in order to effectively manage cases where our young people may be at risk of harm or abuse, attending and contributing in strategy discussions and case conferences where appropriate.

Working alongside the DSL, you'll provide high quality advice and guidance to academy leaders and colleagues across the full spectrum of child protection and welfare matters, shaping and embedding systems, policies and procedures as you go. As such, the role demands an individual with real gravitas; someone who can challenge, support and secure confidence from colleagues in and outside of the academy.

You'll do all this whilst capturing the spirit of our vision and values and whilst role-modelling exceptional professional behaviours.

As a colleague at Leeds you'll work within a diverse learning community, striving to deliver an outstanding working and learning experience for all. Therefore, a genuine passion for working and making a real difference in the community is essential.

So if you're an advocate for keeping children and young people safe and committed to the spirit of co-operation, then we'd be delighted to hear from you.

If you would like an informal discussion about the role, please contact Emma Wingfield -
