Safeguarding and Prevent

At Waltham Forest College, we fully recognise that we have a statutory and moral duty to ensure that we function with a view to safeguard and promote the welfare of children, young people and adults undertaking education and training.

We aim to create and maintain a safe environment for all students, staff, volunteers and visitors, ensuring that all comply with an implement the College's Safeguarding Policy and Procedures and the Prevent Strategy, both of which can be located on our Key Documents page.

Safeguarding is linked to the College Prevent Strategy in its aim to keep our students safe by preventing them from being drawn into terrorism or other forms of extremism.
