Keeping Children Safe
At Wellacre, our main priority is to ensure your children are healthy, happy and safe. This means more than just ensuring their physical safety, Wellacre also focuses on looking after their emotional and mental wellbeing.
We educate students on keeping themselves safe when they are outside of school, from road safety to online safety.

Worried about the behaviour of an adult who works with children?
If your concern is about the behaviour of an adult who works with children in a paid or voluntary capacity, please contact the Principal in the first instance, the Chair of Governors and/or the Local Authority Designated Officer (LADO) for Trafford, Anita Hopkins on or or call 0161 912 5024.
Bullying and Cyberbullying
Bullying behaviour is often deliberately hurtful, repeated over a period of time and is difficult for victims to defend themselves against. It is the wilful, conscious desire to hurt, threaten or frighten someone else. Any behaviour which is intended to hurt others and is SPECIFIC and REPEATED is bullying.
Bullying at Wellacre is very rare and we deal with any reports of bullying quickly and effectively.
If your son has a problem in school with bullying or cyberbullying, please contact their Achievement Tutor or their Head of House.
