Safeguarding information

If you wish to make a disclosure, please email besafe@telfordcollege.ac.uk . It will be reviewed by the BeSafe Manager, who may contact you to arrange an interview to discuss the matter.

Please note: Failing to complete this section or providing false information may lead to your application or enrolment being withdrawn.
