Operation Encompass

Prince Rock Primary are proud to be part of Operation Encompass, as are all of our LAT schools.

If police are called to an incident of domestic abuse and any children in the household have experienced the incident, the police will inform the key adult in school (usually the designated safeguarding lead) before the child or children arrive at school the following day.
