www.westlancs.ac.uk COURSE GUIDE 2013-14 31 SAFEGUARDING We are committed to Safeguarding and ensuring all learners experience a secure, safe and welcoming environment in which they can fulfil their potential. We are also committed to assisting students to develop the skills necessary to take responsibility for their own safety. Specific policies and procedures are in place to safeguard young people (students under 18 years of age) and vulnerable adults; these are robust and are reviewed regularly. Procedures are in place to take all reasonable measures to ensure risk is minimised and appropriate action is taken to address welfare concerns of young people and vulnerable adults. West Lancashire College welcomes diversity in its student population - valuing differences in race, gender, sexual orientation, disability, religion or belief, class and age. We actively oppose discrimination, aim to remove all conditions that put people at a disadvantage, strive to improve access and to provide outstanding support. We are committed to providing an inclusive learning environment. We have produced a Single Equality Scheme which sets out our response to statutory obligations and our approach to the active promotion of equality and diversity.
