We are committed to ensuring that all pupils who go missing from schools in the county, or who disappear from other counties and may have arrived in Buckinghamshire, are speedily located.
Weapons Awareness
Resources and links providing guidance around weapons in school.
Following an increase in exclusions in which weapons have been a contributory factor, and a number of high profile national incidents, a task and finish group was called to establish how schools could be supported to respond to this changing and unpredictable situation.
It was felt that the most effective means would be to compile a range of resources from which schools can choose and/or adapt to suit their individual circumstances. They have been sourced from a variety of places and are not accredited.
