Safeguarding is at the heart of everything we do at Silverstone UTC

​

At Silverstone UTC, we are fully committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all our students. We strive to create a safe, respectful, and inclusive environment where every young person is valued and protected. Our staff are trained to recognise signs of abuse, neglect, exploitation, and radicalisation, ensuring that concerns are addressed promptly and appropriately to provide effective support, protection, and justice.

​

As part of a wider safeguarding system, we work closely with the West Northamptonshire Safeguarding Children Partnership and other key agencies to ensure the wellbeing of our students. When concerns arise, we act decisively, making referrals where necessary and contributing to ongoing assessments and interventions to support each child’s needs.

​

We maintain a proactive safeguarding culture, underpinned by the principle that ‘it could happen here.’ The best interests of the child are always our priority. We recognise that abuse can occur both between adults and children and among peers. Through education, training, and clear procedures, we work to prevent harm and respond effectively to any safeguarding concerns.

​

The safety and welfare of our students is our highest priority. Every young person—regardless of age, gender, ability, background, or identity—has an equal right to protection. Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility, and all staff, visitors, and stakeholders play a vital role in keeping our students safe. By placing students at the centre of our safeguarding approach, we ensure that their wellbeing and best interests remain at the heart of everything we do.
