Operation Encompass

Operation Encompass is a national system which allows police to notify your child’s school, if they have attended a home to manage an incident of domestic abuse. This will happen if the children are present or even if the children not present but are related to either of the adult parties involved. The notification will only be received by the Designated Safeguarding Lead and full details will not be shared with all staff.

Notifying schools is now a legal obligation and police must notify schools after every incident.

If our school receives a notification, we can then sensitively and discretely support your child once they arrive to school.

The safeguarding team will always be available should you require any advice or support. We can signpost you to agencies who are specialists in this area and they will offer specific help and guidance.
