To help keep all pupils safe, please ensure the school has up-to-date information about any allergies your child may have. Accurate allergy information enables us to put appropriate support plans in place, train staff effectively, and respond quickly in an emergency. We all have a part to play in creating a safe environment, including following our nut-aware policy and being mindful of the food brought into school. If your child has an allergy, please contact the school or update their details via Arbor. Be Allergy Aware and Save A Life - see more here

Health & Wellbeing

At Paignton Academy, the health and wellbeing of our students, as well as our staff, is paramount. Our Senior Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead, Mrs Mountford, and our Deputy Safeguarding Lead, Miss Sisk are always available to offer help, and there are many outside agencies who can offer support if you, or someone you know, is suffering with their mental health. Posters are around the Academy with contact details of such organisations and you can also view it here.
