Safeguarding

At this very difficult time for us all, we need to make sure that all of our students have access to support if they have any concerns. Our safeguarding team continues to be on hand if students have any concerns, or if parents/carers wish to get in contact to report a safeguarding issue at the following email address: 

SAFEGUARDING@FOXFORD.COVENTRY.SCH.UK 

In addition to this, we have put together some useful websites and points of contact that can support both you and your child during this time.​
