Sturton by Stow Primary School’s Commitment to Safeguarding and Child Protection
At Sturton by Stow Primary School, we are committed to safeguarding children and young people, and we expect everyone who works in our school to share this commitment. Adults in our school take all welfare concerns seriously and encourage children and young people to talk to us about anything that may worry them.
The Designated Safeguarding Leads (DSL) are Mrs Claire Hanson-Church and Mrs Tracy Desforges.
For more information, please see our Safeguarding & Child Protection Policy below.

Operation Encompass
In December 2019 we became an Operation Encompass School, becoming part of a national scheme which runs jointly between all schools and the police.
Operation Encompass is the reporting to schools, prior to the start of the next school day, when a child or young person has experienced, any domestic abuse.
