# Safeguarding

Teach West London is committed to providing a safe, respectful and supportive environment for all participants on our Early Career Teacher Programme (ECTP). Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility, and all concerns will be treated seriously.

If you have any safeguarding concerns, including:

- concerns about the behaviour or conduct of another participant in your facilitated sessions

- concerns that a facilitator has said or done something that raises a safeguarding issue

- concerns relating to the safety or wellbeing of yourself or another participant you must report this as soon as possible.

**How to report a safeguarding concern**

Participants should contact the Teach West London Safeguarding Lead for ECTP:

Sam Barnsley
Safeguarding Lead
<s.barnsley@teachwestlondon.org.uk>

You may also contact the **UCL Safeguarding Lead** for the ECTP partnership.
Details can be found here: Stephen Calladine-Evans, Programme Leader, UCL Early Career Teacher Programme (<s.calladine-evans@ucl.ac.uk>)

All concerns will be handled sensitively and in line with statutory safeguarding guidance.
