Lostock Gralam C of E Primary School
Safeguarding
Children are at the heart of everything we do and Christ is the light that guides us. John 8:12
"The teachers are very welcoming and accept children for who we are, the three school rules show how important being safe is (ready, respectful and safe). We have e safety lessons, we see the police in school and we always feel safe. We hear the alarms being checked and that makes us feel safe."
Nothing is more important to us than the safety and welfare of our pupils. We take rigorous steps to ensure that children stay safe and do not come to any harm. We work closely with families and a range of professional external agencies in order to secure this.

Pastoral & Inclusion Lead - Laura Southall
Hi, my name is Laura Southall and I'm pastoral and inclusion lead here at Lostock Gralam Primary School. I'm a mum of three girls so know just how difficult it can be juggling family when things sometimes aren't going quite to plan. You can find me in school on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. I can support you in many different ways - whether it's some friendly, positive advice over the phone, referrals to foodbank or other local agencies or advice on housing, benefits, parenting and money management to name just a few. If you feel like you need a little bit of extra support, please feel free to give me a call at school. Look forward to speaking to you!
