Operation Encompass is a unique police and education early intervention safeguarding partnership enabling support for children and young people who have experienced domestic abuse. Operation Encompass is every child’s right and will ensure that ALL incidents of Domestic Abuse are shared with schools, not just those where an offence can be identified.

​

Through Operation Encompass a trained Key Adult in school will be notified prior to the start of the next school day that a child has experienced an incident of Domestic Abuse when the police have attended. The Key Adult is the person who will receive the information from the police.

​​

The Key Adult for Priory Park Community School is Mr Hucknall (Designated Safeguarding Lead).

​

The Key Adult must be notified prior to the start of the school day in order to plan for timely support. This timely knowledge enables all interactions, from when the child first arrives at the school gates, to be of a positive nature.
