'All individuals matter' 

Operation Compass 

At Winchelsea Primary School we are involved with Operation Encompass, working in partnership with Lincolnshire Police. Operation Encompass is the reporting to schools prior to 9am the following day, when a child or young person has been involved in or been exposed to a domestic incident. 

Operation Encompass will ensure that a member of the school's staff – the Designated Safeguarding Lead, is trained to allow them to liaise with the police and to use the information that has been shared in confidence, while ensuring that the school is able to make provision for possible difficulties experienced by children, or their families, who have recently experienced a domestic abuse incident.

We are keen to offer the best support possible to all our pupils, and we believe this will be extremely beneficial for all those involved.
