Safeguarding at CMSS

At Cambridge Muslim Secondary School (CMSS), the safety and well-being of every student is our top priority. We are committed to providing a safe, caring, and supportive environment where all students feel respected, valued, and protected. We believe every child has the right to learn and grow in a safe environment, both inside and outside the classroom.

We take safeguarding and child protection seriously and work to protect students from bullying, abuse, neglect, discrimination, and all forms of harm. Our staff are trained to recognise signs of concern, listen to students, and take appropriate action whenever a safeguarding issue is identified.

We encourage students to speak openly with trusted members of staff whenever they feel worried, unsafe, or need support. Our Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) and Deputy Designated Safeguarding Leads (DDSLs) are responsible for overseeing safeguarding concerns and ensuring that appropriate support and action are provided.

At CMSS, we also promote online safety, positive relationships, mutual respect, and good behaviour. We work closely with parents, carers, and relevant external organisations to support the welfare of our students. Through our safeguarding policies and procedures, we aim to ensure that every child feels safe, supported, and confident throughout their school journey.
