As part of Brooke School's commitment to safeguarding and child protection we support the government’s Prevent Strategy, and take guidance from Teaching Appoaches to help to build resilience to extremism. A Parent Pamphlet is available below.
The Prevent strategy is a government strategy designed to stop people becoming terrorists or supporting terrorist or extremist causes. We have prepared a leaflet to explain how we have regard to this strategy which can be found on our web site or from our school reception.
Many of the things we already do in school to help children become positive, happy members of society also contribute to the Prevent strategy.
These include:
At Brooke School, we build pupils’ resilience to radicalisation by promoting fundamental British values. Please see our British values guidance on our web site.
The statutory guidance refers to the importance of Prevent awareness training to equipstaff to identify children at risk of being drawn into terrorism and to challenge extremist ideas. At our school all teaching and support staff have completed training.
