Safeguarding at Idea Store Learning

Our commitment

At Idea Store Learning, we take our safeguarding responsibilities very seriously.

We are committed to ensuring everyone who uses our learning services are kept safe, treated fairly, and respected at all times.

You have the right to feel safe where you learn, and it is the responsibility of every learner and every member of staff to:

  • respect other people's right to safety
  • not to hurt or abuse others
  • not to threaten others

Safeguarding policy

We have a safeguarding policy which we follow and we work with the relevant agencies to protect people at risk from exploitation and radicalisation to ensure the safety of staff and learners.

If you have any concerns regarding your safety or that of another learner, please speak to your tutor.

If you cannot speak to your tutor, please ask to speak to a manager or email our Safeguarding team at ISL.Safeguarding@towerhamlets.gov.uk or call 020 7364 1080
