Safeguarding Team
The Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) at Lostock Hall Primary School is Mrs Dockry. She can be contacted via email on EDockry@lostockhall.cheshire.sch.uk. If Mrs Dockry is not available, her Deputy Safeguarding Lead is Mr Hamilton, the Head Teacher who can be contacted via Head@lostockhall.cheshire.sch.uk.
We have an active student safeguarding group with members from each class who discuss key topics such as bullying, online safety and all aspects of keeping themselves safe. The students have enjoyed the opportunity to get involved in these discussions in our school and across local schools where they come together to share ideas. Several student conferences have been held over the last few years at Poynton High School and local Primary Schools in Poynton.

Bullying is widely defined as repeated, negative actions which are targeted towards an individual who finds it difficult to defend him or herself. Bullying takes place within a social group yet is often considered as an act between two individuals, a bully and a victim.
