Schools of Sanctuary
Lark Hill is very proud to be a School of Sanctuary. We are part of a growing network of more than 680 primary and secondary schools, nurseries and sixth forms all committed to creating a culture of welcome, understanding and belonging for those forced to flee their homes. We were one of the early Salford schools to become part of this initiative and it is now well embedded in our curriculum content.
This network supports the thousands of children and young people seeking sanctuary in the UK, raises awareness of the experiences of people seeking safety, and plays a key role in building a culture of kindness and compassion. Every year, we take part in the Day of Welcome, and develop our understanding further through Refugee Week learning.
