Hello, welcome to SHARP - the School Help Advice Reporting Page.
SHARP is a tool that you can use to contact key staff in school to support you with any problems that you might have or to report any issues that are troubling you.
It is important that we all work together to help with you with any problems you may have in or out of school and the first step is to let us know.
The SHARP system will send your message to the academy safeguarding team, who will respond as soon as they can the next school day.
This is a CONFIDENTIAL way to help stop YOU or a FRIEND or SOMEONE you have seen from SUFFERING.
