Safeguarding
Safeguarding at Dixons Fazakerley Academy
At Dixons Fazakerley Academy, safeguarding is at the heart of everything we do. We are fully committed to promoting the welfare, safety and wellbeing of every student, and we follow all statutory guidance, including Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSIE) 2025.
Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility. Every member of staff receives regular, up‑to‑date training so that students always have someone they can talk to.
