In response to concerns raised by the Neighbourhood Policing Team (NPT) and their letter, ‘Do you know where your child is?’, the School has considered very carefully  the way in which it can support the community and promote positive behaviours. Although we will continue to work collaboratively with the NPT on curriculum delivery and the content of PSHE & C lessons and in the delivery of assemblies, we felt that we needed to offer something that provided the community with a tool for communicating concerns and for accessing support and raising awareness.

In partnership with the NPT, we have just launched a website :

http://kingsdown.thesharpsystem.com/

This website provides all users with a unique and confidential way of contacting the School and the Police to inform us of concerns regarding antisocial behaviour both inside school and in the wider community. As you navigate through the website, you’ll see that there are a number of very useful public information films which are continually updated. Each page has the facility for you to complete an (anonymous if you wish) online form that when you submit, it will be sent straight to Mr Lowe in School and Mandi Coles at the Police Station. Concerns that can be reported include those around the home, bullying, health, the community, weapons and hate crime.
