Safeguarding Statement

Our commitment

Creator Academi CIC works with children and young people from age 7 to 19. Keeping them safe comes before everything else we do, including finishing a session, keeping a booking or protecting the reputation of the organisation.

What is in place

• All delivery is carried out by Keiron Phillips, who holds an enhanced DBS check. Confirmation is available to schools, referrers and parents on request.
• Creator Academi operates under a written Safeguarding Policy, which covers recognising and responding to concerns, recording, referral routes, allegations against staff, and safe use of photography and video. A copy is available on request.
• Creator Academi holds public liability insurance.
• Where sessions run inside a school, we work within that school's safeguarding arrangements and report concerns to their Designated Safeguarding Lead.
• Where sessions run as alternative provision, safeguarding arrangements and information sharing are agreed in writing with the referring school or local authority before delivery begins.

Photography and video

Children film each other as part of the activity. Nothing is used beyond the session without explicit written consent from a parent or carer, and that consent can be withdrawn at any time. See our Privacy Policy for how this works in practice.

Raising a concern

If you have a concern about a child's safety or about the conduct of anyone delivering a Creator Academi session, please raise it. You do not need to be certain, and you will not be treated as a nuisance.
