John Henry Newman Catholic College recognises their statutory responsibility to make sure that appropriate arrangements are in place to safeguard and promote the welfare of children: Section 175 of the Education Act 2002.

John Henry Newman have produced a range of materials explaining what 'safeguarding' is and what we do at John Henry Newman Catholic College when there is a concern about a pupil's welfare.
We will always respect your families right to privacy. We will only discuss your business with people who can help you.
Our pupils are very important to us. Please let us know if there is something you are worried about.  feelingsafe@jhncc.org

Bullying

John Henry Newman Catholic College is committed to providing a caring, friendly and safe environment for all students so that they can learn in a relaxed and secure atmosphere. Bullying of any kind is unacceptable at the College whether it is on site or off-site activities. If bullying does occur, all students should be able to tell someone, and know that incidents will be dealt with promptly and effectively. This means that anyone who knows that bullying is happening is expected to tell a member of staff.
