Safeguarding Policy
JKA England recognises the need for the wellbeing and safety of all children and vulnerable adults in its care and seeks to do everything possible to ensure that all students can enjoy their Karate in a safe environment and that parents and guardians can be confident of their child’s safety.
Safeguarding Issue
If you think a child is in immediate danger or requires medical attention, you should call the emergency services on 999. You can also call the NSPCC helpline on 0808 800 5000 to report immediate risks.
If you think an adult is in immediate danger or requires medical attention, you should call the emergency services on 999. Wherever possible let the adult know what you are doing.
Safeguarding Code
JKA England is leading the charge in sports safeguarding, having successfully attained the Safeguarding Code in Martial Arts “mark” for the Association.
Achieving the Safeguarding Code, demonstrates JKA England's commitment to upholding its duty-of-care to the community and young people. The Safeguarding Code in Martial Arts has been created so that parents and carers can clearly identify a martial arts provider that have demonstrated that they have reached and maintained good safeguarding standards and can make informed decisions when selecting a club for their child.
Main Contact
If you have a safeguarding concern about a child or an adult within a JKA England affiliated club, then you should immediately contact the Safeguarding Officer.
