DOMESTIC ABUSE
Domestic Abuse is when your partner or any other family member abuses you psychologically, emotionally, physically, sexually or financially. It can be one single incident or repeated abuse but usually it is a pattern of behaviour. If you feel intimidated by or frightened of your partner to the point where you feel that you have to change your behaviour you may be experiencing domestic abuse.
Sexual Violence includes child sexual abuse, sexual assault, sexual exploitation, prostitution, female genital mutilation, rape etc. Whenever it happened, whether repeated or a single incident, if it is against your will it is not acceptable.

Yn dilyn y trafodaethau hyn, efallai y bydd rhaid i gyd-gysylltydd yr ysgol gyfeirio’r plentyn yn swyddogol i’r Adran Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol, yn unol â chanllawiau a phrotocol y Sir.
Yr Adran Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol sy’n penderfynu a oes angen gweithredu neu beidio.

Y Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol a’r Heddlu sy’n gyfrifol am ymchwilio i gyhuddiadau.

Children have a right to be protected and this is everyone's responsibility. Here at Ysgol Gorslas we are committed to providing a safe and supportive environment where learners can develop and grow into mature and responsible individuals.
Ysgol Gorslas has a pastoral duty to its pupils and the school plays an important role in preventing abuse and neglect by creating and maintaining a safe environment for children and young people.
Each member of staff at this school is responsible for safeguarding and protecting the children who attend.
If there are concerns about neglect or physical, emotional or sexual abuse, then it is incumbent on staff, in accordance with the County's Safeguarding Procedures, to report the matter to the school's Child Protection Co-ordinator.
The school Co-ordinator may consult fellow professionals as well as relevant agencies such as Health and Social Services. Following these discussions, the school co-ordinator may need to officially refer the child to the Social Services Department, in accordance with the County's guidelines and protocol. It is for the Social Services Department to decide whether to take action.
Due to the nature of the allegations, it will not always be appropriate to discuss issues with parents before referring the child.
Social Services and the Police are responsible for investigating the allegations.
The school follows the Carmarthenshire Protocol and if there was an allegation against a member of staff, the school would follow the County's procedures.
