Safeguarding at The Henrician

Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility, so as part of your induction in working at The Henrician, please ensure you watch this video. This video is targeted at training members of Prince Henry’s High School community such as teachers and support staff workers, but the main principle messages are the same.

In addition, everyone involved with the theatre will be required to have an enhanced DBS check. This will be arranged as part of your application.

We align ourselves to the same safeguarding standards as expected by Prince Henry’s High School to ensure a safe environment for our guests and those working in the theatre. Should you ever become concerned about someone’s wellbeing, you can report this to the House Manager in the first instance, or contact the Theatre Manager using the Contact Us page.

Reporting a Safeguarding Concern

When you need to report a safeguarding concern within the theatre, you can report the incident to:

  • The House Manager
  • The Theatre Manager
  • Designated Safeguarding Lead at Prince Henry’s High School
