Summary
Highgate created the role of Designated Safeguarding Lead, separate from the Deputy Head (Pastoral) at the start of 2022. This followed a period of unprecedented challenge for schools and young people following the ‘Everyone’s Invited’ movement, during which Highgate engaged with its many stakeholder groups, including statutory agencies. The Governors commissioned an Independent Review, led by The Rt Hon Dame Anne Rafferty DBE PC, a former Lady Justice of Appeal. One significant response to these challenges was the School’s commitment to increasing its provision in the area of safeguarding and child protection, leading to the creation of a new role, Director of Safeguarding (Senior Designated Safeguarding Lead). The successful candidate will answer for these responsibilities to the Deputy Head (Pastoral) and, through them, to the Head and to Governors. It is hoped that the successful candidate will be able to take their role in April 2025.
