Our Intimate Care Policy ensures that any personal care needs of pupils are met safely, respectfully and with dignity. Intimate care may include support with toileting, changing clothing, continence needs, personal hygiene, menstrual care, and other related health and wellbeing needs. We are committed to promoting each child’s independence while providing appropriate support when required. Individual care arrangements are agreed with parents/carers and, where appropriate, the child, and are reviewed regularly. All intimate care is carried out by appropriately trained staff in a manner that safeguards pupils’ privacy, wellbeing and dignity, while maintaining high standards of safeguarding and communication with families.
