Welcome
IBSTOCK PLACE SCHOOL is an independent co-educational day school for pupils aged 3-18, providing a rich variety of opportunity in a friendly, supportive atmosphere with a strong family ethos. Our school is on the edge of Richmond Park in south-west London. If you would like to visit us, please see the Contacts page for details. We look forward to meeting you. |

Ibstock Place School recognises that Safeguarding and Promoting Welfare covers much more than child protection, so our Child Protection Policy operates in conjunction with other policies, namely:
- Anti-Bullying Policy
- Behaviour Management Policy
- Child Exploitation and Online Protection Policy
- Health and Safety Policy
- Physical Intervention Policy
School aims to provide a safe environment for pupils and to educate them about keeping safe themselves. There are therefore systems in place to:
- Prevent unsuitable people from working with pupils
- Identify pupils who are at risk of and/or likely to suffer harm and take appropriate action
- Promote safe practice and challenge unsafe practice
We encourage pupils to raise concerns and we take their concerns seriously. The daily and termly tutorial programme, along with School Council, provide opportunities for pupils to collectively contribute ideas about safety and welfare. The House system for pastoral care encourages pupils to share individual concerns with their Peer Mentors, House Captains or their Deputies (VI pupils), whilst Tutor – pupil relationships based on trust encourage individuals to talk to teachers openly.
