The Designated Staff for Safeguarding at The George Eliot School are Miss Angela Ruston and Mrs Homeira Zakary.

Safeguarding is about ensuring everyone is safe from harm – safe from bullying, safe from people who could abuse, safe from discrimination or harassment – and that we all feel safe in our environment.
