Hesley Group's designated managers develop policy and best practice initiatives and assess how well we are doing in meeting our objectives and complying with national standards. This includes the management of health and safety and keeping people safe. The organisation consults with young people using the service and their families/representatives.
The Quality Governance Board reports regularly to the Board and Executive on service standards and any improvements needed. Our formal policies can be found below:
Education
Safety
We are committed to ensuring the health, safety and welfare of the people we support and staff. Ivy Lane School adheres to all procedures in place
Equality
There is a commitment to providing equal opportunities for young people with differing needs relating to culture, religion and beliefs. Our policies on this can be found below:
As part of our Equality objectives we have also developed these Easy Read keeping safe guides for children.
Exclusions
As a school we do not feel exclusions work as either an effective sanction or behaviour management technique for the school and do not envisage using them in our practice throughout the school year. You can read our
Exclusion of School Pupils policy here.
Complaints
Hesley Group has a formal procedure for complaints in accordance with the Education Act (2002):
Record of complaints: As the school has only recently opened there were no formal complaints received during the last school year.
