Safeguarding Mission Statement
BSMI is committed to keeping children and under 18s safe in all areas of college life, both in the college, at their homestay or at one of the college’s outside activities.
The college has a clear and strict safeguarding policy which ensures that all students, especially under 18s, are looked after at all levels, physically, sexually, mentally, socially, and emotionally while they are studying at British School of Marketing International.
All management, staff and homestay families know about safeguarding to make sure that no under 18s or any student, suffer any physical, sexual, mental, social, emotional abuse or neglect while studying at British School of Marketing International.
We have a Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) – who checks all safeguarding in the college including staff and homestay training, DBS checks, safeguarding induction sessions, regular meetings with under 18s as well as meeting with local safeguarding agencies as and when necessary.
All staff and teachers must provide an updated DBS Certificate every year and homestays provide a DBS certificate every year before being allowed to work with or have our students.
British School of Marketing International always check the welfare and safety of its students and deals with any problems as soon as possible sending students to the correct department, if necessary.
Once a week, the safeguarding leader will meet with under 18s as a group to check that everything is OK and to discuss any problems they may have. If needed, students may also have extra 1:1 meetings with the safeguarding leader.
Any problems about the safety of students are immediately dealt with, and if needed, safety specialists (for example Dorset NEXUS and/or MASH) are contacted.
