STARS is a medical pupil referral unit for children and young people with complex medical needs. The service operates over a number of sites in Sutton. We also have a schoolroom at the Royal Marsden Hospital and provide bedside teaching at Queen Mary's Hospital for Children.

The service is based at the Drapers’ Centre in Carshalton.

Sutton Tuition and Reintegration Service takes all aspects of safeguarding and child protection seriously. We have robust recruitment and child protection policies in place as well as behaviour policies and a staff Code of Conduct. All staff are trained appropriately in child protection, safeguarding, PREVENT and safer recruitment.

Our safeguarding policy ensures that all members of the school community:

• Are aware of their responsibilities in relation to safeguarding and child protection.
• Know the procedures that should be followed if they have a cause for concern.
• Know where to go to find additional information regarding safeguarding.
• Are aware of the key indicators relating to child abuse.
• Fully support the School's commitment to safeguarding and child protection.

If you have any concerns about your child, another pupil or a member of staff please do not hesitate to contact the Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) who will be able to provide you with the best advice and help.
