Safeguarding Week
Safeguarding Week • News • Wesley College
John Wesley powerfully declared “Every Child Matters”, and a significant way of us honouring that declaration is to also honour National Child Safeguarding Week from Monday, 8th September to Sunday, 14th September 2025. As part of our commitment to child safety, throughout Child Safeguarding Week, we are proud to be sharing with you some of the steps we have been taking as part of our comprehensive safeguarding program to strengthen safeguarding and child protection at Wesley College. Our upcoming child safety plans, including this newsletter and the week’s celebrations, will be the start of more frequent child safety messaging and updates.
