What to do if you have a safeguarding concern about a child
First Response is the front door to children’s services in Bristol. We may need to contact them if we have a safeguarding concern about a child and need to explore further support than what has already been offered from the school and other organisations.
First Response are responsible for assessing the concerns that they receive and making the decision about what action to take regarding them. First Response will gather information from partner agencies that are involved with families that are referred.
First Response will decide whether any action is necessary and, if so, whether a family will be referred to the Families in Focus Team or a Social Work Unit for further assessment.
The work of Families in Focus can include parenting programmes or support, mentoring as well as support with behaviour management or home routines.
E-SAFETY AND THE USE OF MOBILE PHONES
Starting Year 7 and making new friends is one of the best parts of going to Secondary schools. However, sometimes this new responsibility is difficult to manage. We remind students about our commitment to be kind, the consequences of inappropriate behaviour and the importance of community. We will also signpost where they can go for support. Please use the resources from the UK Safer Internet Centre to help support you to have these conversations with your children at home -

Children's Mental Health Week, 3-9 February 2025
Children’s Mental Health Week was launched in 2015 to shine a spotlight on the importance of children and young people’s mental health. The Children’s Mental Health Week theme this year is “Let’s Connect”, encouraging people to connect with others in healthy, rewarding and meaningful ways.
We have been using the PSHE programme with our students to discuss healthy relationships with others, how connections with others help us have a sense of belonging and how we can use our voices to connect with those who feel marginalised or disconnected.
Throughout Children’s Mental Health week we will be sharing daily tips promoting mental health awareness. There are also some helpful tips from mental health experts to help connect with your child on the . For more information about Children’s Mental Health week please visit
