Operation Encompass

Our school has been given the opportunity to take part in a project that will run jointly between schools and South Yorkshire Police. This project is known as Operation Encompass

Operation Encompass is the notification to schools that a child (under 18) has been exposed to, or involved in, any domestic incident. This will ordinarily be done by the start of the next school day.

Operation Encompass will ensure that specifically trained member of the school staff, known as a Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL), is informed. The DSL can then use the information, in confidence, to ensure the well being of the child. The school may be able to make provisions or adjustments to assist the young person and their family.

Our school is keen to offer the best support possibly to all of our young people and we believe this will be extremely beneficial for all those involved
