Safeguarding from Extremism and Radicalisation

At Bishop Lonsdale C of E Academy we aim to educate pupils on the dangers of radicalisation by supporting their personal development and building trusting relationships that enable them to discuss ideas.

Parents and pupils who have concerns about extremism and radicalisation may look to schools/academies as a trusted source of advice on how to keep children safe from these risks. In addition to materials produced by the Local Authority and the police – such as the new ‘Prevent Tragedies’ online campaign launched by the Police (http://www.preventtragedies.co.uk/) – there are online resources produced by civil society groups which provide valuable advice for example ‘Families Matter’ (http://www.familiesmatter.org.uk/), (run by Families Against Stress and Trauma).
